'We haven't got to the bottom of him yet' - Group 1 ambitions for unbeaten Summer Mile winner Quddwah
![Callum Shepherd rides Quddwah to win the Summer Mile Stakes (Group 2) at Ascot](/_next/image/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fs3-eu-west-1.amazonaws.com%2Fprod-media-racingpost%2Fprod%2Fimages%2F169_1008%2F54be7b3b07e6-quddwah.jpg&w=3840&q=75)
A tilt against some of the best of this year's Classic crop is under consideration for the unbeaten Quddwah and a step up to Group 1 company is assured after the Sussex Stakes and Prix Jacques le Marois became the two leading options for Saturday's Summer Mile winner.
The four-year-old extended his winning streak to four in the Group 2 contest at Ascot under Callum Shepherd, building on his Listed success at the track in May and two wins as a three-year-old.
The half-length win on Saturday served as compensation for missing Royal Ascot due to a poor blood test and Quddwah was duly cut to 10-1 for this month's Sussex Stakes at the Qatar Goodwood Festival.
