Fawzi Nass believes Krypton Factor will be a much-improved horse when he takes to the track again in next week's July Cup.

It will be the first time the Bahraini sprinter will have raced on the Newmarket July course, although he has been based in the area for his preparation.

The experienced international traveller has not won since the 2012 Golden Shaheen but put in a fine effort in the Diamond Jubilee Stakes at Royal Ascot when third to Lethal Force under new jockey Luke Morris.

"He needed the race at Royal Ascot as he had not run since March and he is the type of horse who needs a race or two to get to his top notch of fitness," Nass said.

"We had to miss the July Cup last year because of the rain. Ground conditions are very important to him and he does not like anything worse than good.

"I am hoping that his improvement in fitness and the different circumstances in which the July Cup may be run will mean that we can overturn Ascot form.

"He has never run at the July Course before, but we were lucky enough to get the chance to work him on the track last year and he seemed to handle it well."

Among those taking on Krypton Factor again will be American visitor Havelock, who was only 11th at Ascot.

Darrin Miller's representative cantered on the track on Wednesday morning under the trainer's son and regular work rider, Chase, and will be partnered in the race by Frankie Dettori.
