J: Tom Marquand

T: A P O’Brien

Plenty went wrong for him racing wide in the 1m6f Queen's Vase at Royal Ascot but he rallied strongly for a close fifth, just behind three of today's rivals; much better with cheekpieces since, winning a five-runner Group 3 at Newmarket (1m5f) by nearly 9l and outgunning his older stablemate Illinois in their duel for the Goodwood Cup (2m, good); that makes him look the strongest stayer in this field and gives him almost the best form.

Form & Verdict
Strong form at this venue last season, winning three times here, including a C&D Listed race and a 1m5f premier handicap; never a factor in the Irish Cesarewitch; probably unsuited by very soft ground on his seasonal debut at the Curragh six weeks ago.

Form & Verdict
Fourth in Chester Cup and Ascot Stakes last season, won a four-runner St Leger Trial at the Curragh in August, readily brushing aside front-running Dallas Star; failed to do himself justice when tailed off in the Irish St Leger, made late progress into fourth behind Scandinavia at Navan on return; should be sharper now and may reverse form with runner-up Dallas Star.
