Form & Verdict
C&D novice winner last August (good to soft), after which he ran creditably in a York Listed race in October; promising third behind Double Rush on reappearance at the Craven meeting (6f, good to soft) and took another step forward on that other Newmarket track with a dominant display at the Guineas meeting, hanging left under pressure no barrier to a comfortable success; an 11lb rise asks a stiffer question and this race is usually won by something lurking further down the weights.

Prince Of India

9st 4lb

J: Pat Dobbs

T: Marco Botti

Won C&D handicap in 2025; has some scope at this level, given his good sixth of 11 in Group 1 July Cup at Newmarket (6f, good to firm; slightly hampered when just behind Division); made all in a Listed race over that C&D last time; dangerous with cheekpieces replacing blinkers.

Yet to win this season but took his form to a new level when fitted with blinkers for last two runs, looking unlucky not to finish closer than sixth in C&D Group 1 July Cup before running on well for second in 7f Newbury Group 2 (also good to firm) last Saturday; eased in grade today; the one to beat.

Form & Verdict
Impressed at Southwell on his handicap debut in February (6f) but subsequently looked to have found the handicapper in command; back to form with a bang when rewarding good support at Kempton four weeks ago but an 8lb rise leaves him with more to do; still has something to prove on turf too.

Looked good when winning over C&D in June; struggled in a hot race at Newmarket the following month but only fifth at Newcastle last time and others may have his measure in this field.

Looked good when winning at Southwell on his handicap debut in February (6f); form then levelled off until he ran out the easy winner of a 6f handicap at Kempton in June (well backed); stiff task at Newmarket six weeks ago and the return to AW is in his favour.

Form & Verdict
Ran to a fair level on his first two starts before taking a marked step forward at Wolverhampton (6f) last month, still looking green off the bridle but coming home 6.5l to the good; gelded since; may have more to offer but he's into a red-hot event for his handicap debut.

Only 1lb above a winning return to turf at Ascot (6f, good to firm) in May; not so good in two runs on grass since but his efforts in soft-ground sprints in 2025 suggest he might well be a factor back on this surface.

Ran well over C&D last September; beat 17 rivals when landing a Class 4 handicap at Ascot (6f, good to firm) in May but he was unable to build on it at Pontefract last month; perhaps vulnerable once more.

Form & Verdict
Made a winning return to action at Ripon in April (6f, good; first run after wind surgery); three creditable efforts in defeat have followed but on each occasion he's finished behind reopposing rivals; should run his race but may find others stronger for win purposes.

He has been revived by a switch to AW of late, finishing a close third at Wolverhampton (6f) last month before a dominant win back at that track 22 days ago; up 6lb but still feasibly weighted on his turf best; big player from a handy draw.

Looked as good as ever when close third of 16 on seasonal debut at Ripon (6f, good to soft) in April but his form has dipped since and he has questions to answer on this AW debut.
