Has smart form; won at the Breeders' Cup in 2024 and made the frame in Group 1 events the last twice, finishing second in the Nunthorpe then fourth in the Flying Five; leading player back down in class. |

4th 10 (10) |
13th Sep 2026 Yielding 0m 5f 0y |
9st 6lb |
Finished a close third in the 2024 Nunthorpe and went on to win the Breeders' Cup Turf Sprint (5f, firm); ran only twice in 2025, slow process recapturing form; right back near the top of his game when best of the rest behind Bacio in the Nunthorpe; can feature alongside Rumstar and Time For Sandals. |

2nd 9 (10) |
21st Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 1 |
10st 1lb |
Finished a close third in the 2024 running and went on to win the Breeders' Cup Turf Sprint (5f, firm; has won on good to soft) later in the year; seen only twice in 2025 and it's been a slow process recapturing form but a recent close fourth to Redorange in a C&D Listed race (first-time visor, now discarded) in July was better; no surprise to see him go well at a price. |

13th Sep 2026 Yielding 0m 5f 0y |
9st 6lb |
Has four Group 3 wins (on good and good to firm) under his belt; recent runs make him a serious Group 1 contender, split American Affair and Time For Sandal at Goodwood; a fine third behind the brilliant Bacio and Starlust in the Nunthorpe; not certain to uphold York form with Time For Sandals who was unlucky. |

3rd 8 (8) |
21st Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 1 |
10st 1lb |
Has four Group 3 wins (on good and good to firm) under his belt; outward appearances suggest this level is beyond him but if the door had opened in time for him in this last year he might have been placed instead of finishing only fifth; frame chance. |

Reappeared with good second to Night Raider in the Group 3 Palace House at Newmarket (5f, good to firm) and bounced back from below-par run at Royal Ascot to win at Sandown (5f, good) four weeks ago, taking that Group 3 for the second year in a row; has won here and is firmly in calculations. |

Won Group 1 Commonwealth Cup at Royal Ascot in 2025, then finished a close third to Jm Jungle in a Group 2 at Goodwood (5f, good to soft); after several low-key displays, back to form when third behind American Affair and Rumstar at Goodwood; had her path repeatedly blocked in the Nunthorpe and her fourth placing can be upgraded; fair prospects of a turnaround with Starlust and Rumstar. |

Won Group 1 Commonwealth Cup at Royal Ascot in 2025, then finished a close third to Jm Jungle in a Group 2 at Goodwood (5f, good to soft); she's had a chequered 2026 but the return to Goodwood last time may have helped when again close up in third; needs to find more in this company. |

21st Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 1 |
9st 12lb |
Stays 6f well but this looks her trip and, following a Group 3 win at Longchamp (soft) she so nearly held on in the King Charles III (good to firm) at Royal Ascot, where Mission Central was better positioned on the stands' side; has come from off the pace on her last two starts, which is a worry on this track, but she has a strong form chance. |

2nd 21 (15) |
16th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 1 |
9st 4lb |
Ran a scorcher when coming from well back to finish third of 21 to Time For Sandals in the Group 1 Commonwealth Cup here (6f, good to firm) last June; two defeats at Meydan this spring but she was impressive back over 5f in a Group 3 at Longchamp (soft) in May and this up-and-comer is expected by connections to improve for the return to quick ground; much respected. |
7/1 |

18th Oct 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |
9st 0lb |
Beaten less than a length in the Commonwealth Cup over C&D (good to firm) in June; that remains her best effort but she probably found 5f too sharp when just denied in Group 3 at Longchamp five weeks ago; still low mileage and unexposed; very interesting contender back under optimum conditions. |

13th Sep 2026 Yielding 0m 5f 0y |
9st 6lb |
Gelding operation in the close season has done the trick; followed a Group 3 win with a Group 2 at Haydock (5f, good to soft), overcoming a slow start to win in some style; lesser efforts at Royal Ascot and Goodwood since; sixth in the Nunthorpe marked a return to near his best. |

21st Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 1 |
10st 1lb |
Has taken time to get to grips with turf and was easily seen off when fourth in this last year; however, a gelding operation in the close season has worked wonders and he followed a Group 3 win with one in a Group 2 at Haydock (5f, good to soft), overcoming a slow start to win in some style; his star has dimmed somewhat at Royal Ascot and Goodwood since, but the return to a flat track offers hope that he can be on song again. |
14/1 |

10th 1 (13) |
31st Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 1 |
9st 7lb |
Returned this year having been gelded and he's been an improved model, winning the Group 3 Palace House at Newmarket (5f, good to firm) and the Group 2 Temple Stakes at Haydock (5f, good to soft) before leading home those who raced in the centre group when tenth of 26 overall at Royal Ascot (5f, good to firm); usually front-runs and this speedy track should suit him better than Ascot (ran well in this last year); strong claims despite 3lb penalty. |

9st 12lb |
Made an indelible impression when taking Royal Ascot by storm in the King Charles III two years ago and adding two more Group 1s in 2025 with this race (good to firm) and the Abbaye (very soft); has held on to much of her ability in 2026, not far away back at Royal Ascot and going down narrowly to American Affair in a Group 2 at Goodwood recently, but it's not certain that she still has what it takes to add to last year's win. |
8/1 |

4th 8 (6) |
31st Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 1 |
9st 1lb |
Three Group 1 wins, the latest last October, and second in this race in 2024 (seventh last year); step back in right direction when close seventh at Royal Ascot (5f, good to firm) but finished last at Sandown subsequently (slowly away) and it's been an underwhelming campaign; has to raise her game. |

Australian mare who has become less consistent with age but is very smart on her day, as three Group 1 wins on British/French soil attest; showed clear signs of a return to form last time when bidding to regain her King Charles III Stakes crown; top rated, back down in grade. |

21st Aug 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 1 |

Has won on soft and yielding ground but best on good or quicker; came from the clouds before meeting trouble in running in the King Charles III at Royal Ascot, so did well to finish about 3l behind the winner; again came from behind when leading near the line in a Group 2 at the Curragh since; in prime form but those tactics can be hard to pull off here. |

British raider was in fine form at Meydan at the turn of the year, winning a Listed (yielding) and a Group 2 (good), both over 5f; didn't get the smoothest of runs when beaten 3.5l in the King Charles III at Royal Ascot last time (behind Rosy Affair and Jakajaro) and could get closer here if getting a clear passage. |

Built on an eye-catching reappearance (over this C&D) when justifying strong support in handicap at Windsor (5f, good) in May; only fourth to Washington Heights in Listed event at Carlisle next time but has had a break since and may well bounce back; has real possibilities if he does. |

Won the Group 1 King Charles III at Royal Ascot (5f, good to firm) last June before missing the rest of the season; high points this season are his 1l second in the Group 2 Temple Stakes (5f, good to soft) in May and his Group 2 King George win at Goodwood (5f, good to firm) in July; failed to confirm Goodwood form with Rumstar and Time For Sandals in the Nunthorpe. |

Said goodbye to handicaps when winning over C&D in May 2025 and just two runs later he won the Group 1 King Charles III at Royal Ascot (good to firm; handles good to soft); off the track for nearly a year after and he's been slowly working his way back to form since, looking more his old self when winning a Group 2 at Glorious Goodwood latest; a likely force. |

Rose far above his previous form when second of 17 to Asfoora in this race (100-1) last year in first-time cheekpieces but their effect was fleeting and subsequent runs, including in a handicap, don't offer much hope today; has now been gelded. |

Started the year with two Listed wins at 5f before charging up the stands' side to snatch the Group 1 King Charles III at Royal Ascot (5f, gd-fm); eclipsed in the July Cup and the Nunthorpe; confidence could not be high against that background; probably rash to rule out all the same. |
