Bellum Justum appears to have actually earned himself a put on Andrew Balding's Royal Ascot squad after wearing down odds-on preferred Silver Knott in the Betfred Jockey Club Stakes at Newmarket.
The globetrotting Silver Knott was a 10-11 shot for his very first start in Britain because completing down the field in the 2000 Guineas 2 years ago - and he looked likely to prevail after taking over the lead from the pacesetting Divina Grace heading towards the last two furlongs.
However, Andrew Balding's Bellum Justum (11-2) - a Group Three winner in America last year and fitted with cheekpieces for the very first time after being well beaten on his Newbury resurgence last month - handled to remain on Silver Knott's tail racing out of the dip and ended up the stronger to score by a length and a half under Oisin Murphy.
Balding stated: "He's a high-class horse, he's got some good form from in 2015 and certainly the 2nd is a great horse as well.
"I was thrilled, due to the fact that he 'd been a big disappointment in the John Porter (at Newbury). He certainly required the run that day and he's taken a huge step forward today. It's good to see him back on track.
"I believe the cheekpieces assisted - I think he was quite solid at the end of the race. It was an exceptional efficiency.
Bellum Justum ridden by jockey Oisin Murphy on their method to winning the Betfred Jockey Club Stakes on Guineas Friday of the Betfred Guineas Festival at Newmarket Racecourse, Suffolk. Picture date: Friday May 2, 2025.
"We'll await the Hardwicke (at Royal Ascot), I would have thought. He's had a difficult enough race there and it would be good to have runners with a possibility for King Power (owners) at the Royal meeting.
"We'll try and we've constantly got the option to travel later on in the year if we wish to."
