Alamshar among 50 still in Irish Champion

Alamshar heads a quality entry of 50 after the latest forfeit stage for the Irish Champion Stakes.

The ten furlongs Leopardstown event is a likely target for the recent King George winner, and he could be reopposed by Ascot runner-up Sulamani.

Godolphin also have Dubai Destination entered, while Aidan O?Brien?s strong hand is headed by High Chaparral, Hawk Wing and Black Sam Bellamy.

Classic winners Refuse To Bend and Vintage Tipple are other notables, while John Gosden is aiming Ikhtyar at the Foxrock feature on September 6.
