Nathaniel produced a tremendous performance on his first run of the year to land a thrilling Coral-Eclipse at Sandown.

Sharply away from the stalls, the John Gosden-trained King George winner (7-2) was always in the perfect position under a confident William Buick as he tracked the pacesetting City Style.

Sent on fully three furlongs out, Nathaniel found plenty for pressure to repel the strong challenge of 11-4 favourite Farhh with Twice Over, the winner in 2010, finishing third.

Bloodstock Al: Farhh the third Lockinge Stakes victory for sire Pivotal after Virtual (2009) and Peeress (2006).
Bloodstock Al: York Listed winner Pavlosk (Arch) a half-sister to Italian Gr3 winner Exhibit One; another Juddmonte stakes winner tracing back to Zaizafon
