Scored over 5f on AW in May; consistent in notable races on turf since but has something to find with Final Objective on Gimcrack running and that effort suggests his ceiling is possibly already reached.

Form & Verdict
Dual 5f winner, including Listed; has gone very fast in front since returned to 6f, doing well to finish second in the Prix Morny (Group 1) at Deauville most recently; interesting with this drop back in distance looking ideal.

Form & Verdict
Good second in the Norfolk (Group 2) at Royal Ascot but has finished out of the frame in races won by Pershaada and Sale Shark since; chance partly depends on the effects of first-time headgear.

Form & Verdict
Brings 6f form but gives the impression he'll be as effective over a galloping 5f; ran very well, beating all bar a rival whose record is 4-4, in the Gimcrack at York (good to soft; Group 2) most recently; new rating gives him major claims.

Form & Verdict
All starts over 6f on good to firm; ran a long way below expectations in the Richmond (Group 2) at Goodwood latest but shaped as if this drop to 5f is well worth exploring; 2-2 previously, looking a bright prospect; remains of interest.

Form & Verdict
Failed to beat a rival when upped to 6f in the Gimcrack last time; ran well at Listed level in most recent 5f attempt but needs improvement to emulate his sire, who won this race in 2020 for same stable.

Form & Verdict
Kept to notable races since debut success, producing largely progressive RPRs; prevailed in Listed event at the York Ebor festival (5f, good to soft) most recently, doubling his tally; may rate higher still; one of the main contenders.

Form & Verdict
Trained in France; disappointing in York sales race most recently; progressive sprinter otherwise but landed an essentially weak renewal of the Prix Robert Papin (6f Group 2) and this is a deeper race for the grade.

Hindered by a stumble in the Molecomb then seemingly failed to see out 6f in the Lowther; perhaps better judged on earlier form but record on home soil is now 0-5; gained sole win in French Listed contest.

Had a straightforward task when gaining her win; broadly consistent otherwise, runner-up at Glorious Goodwood (conditions race) and Newbury (Listed) last two starts; faces a stiffer task in this field, however.

Form & Verdict
Had wind surgery in between winning at Carlisle (5f) and finishing midfield in the Lowther (6f Group 2); still an unexposed sort but she is bottom of this pack on ratings and therefore needs marked improvement.

Shaped better than duck egg suggests in the Nunthorpe (Group 1) at York, against her elders, last time; progressive otherwise and was well on top at the finish in the Molecomb at Goodwood (5f, good to firm; Group 3) in July; leading player on that form.

Betting Forcast

16/1 Agamemnon, 6/1 Carry The Flag, 33/1 El Floridita, 11/2 Final Objective, 11/2 Flann Sunna, 50/1 Ronson, 9/2 Sale Shark, 12/1 Tokaido, 12/1 Crownbreaker, 50/1 Fast Track, 25/1 In The Black, 9/4 Pershaada

Verdict

The shortlist is headed by the distance-droppers FINAL OBJECTIVE and Flann Sunna who both give the impression they'll be effective over a galloping 5f and could well continue/resume their progress. The selection is already a major contender on his Gimcrack effort behind an unbeaten rival, while the second choice looked a smart prospect prior to his Richmond defeat. Pershaada has done her winning at Goodwood but she commands respect on ratings, while Sale Shark and Carry The Flag also have possibilities.[Steve Boow]
