9st 10lb |
Three-time winner here including 5L success in Group 2 Curragh Cup in July on latest; Group 1 winner as a 2yo and 3yo, acts on easy ground and looks a deserved favourite on his way to a likely Melbourne Cup bid. |

Last year's Eclipse runner up and 5l winner of the Group 1 Grosser Preis von Berlin (1m4f, good) got back to near his best when a 1.75l second in the Group 2 Hardwicke Stakes at Royal Ascot (1m4f, gd-fm) last month in first-time blinkers; cheekpieces return today and he is top-rated by some distance; should stay this longer trip, preferred by McMonagle and the one to beat. |

Wide-margin Navan maiden winner last year before contesting the Vertem Futurity; neck second on seasonal debut in 1m1f Listed at Leopardstown; looked a bit one-paced over 1m on his next start and found 7f inadequate in a Group 2 event at Leopardstown last week; interesting on handicap debut, but no horse of his age has won this since 2004. |

9st 9lb |
Progressive handicapper this year, winning premier handicap over C&D in June and won at Gowran last month over same trip; well-backed but didn't seem to stay (keen) in 1m6f Ebor on latest when cheekpieces tried (now left off); upped in grade here and needs to improve. |

23rd Aug 2025 Good To Firm 1m 5f 188y Class 2 |
9st 1lb |
Unraced on firmer than good; narrow win at the Curragh in June and he's continued the good work with his never-nearer fourth of 18 at the Galway festival and a more decisive win at Gowran Park ten days ago; they were all over about 1m4f (unraced beyond that on Flat) but 1m6f makes appeal and first-time cheekpieces might sharpen him up, including in the early stages; better is needed under his penalty but he's one to consider. |

9st 8lb |
Won at Wolverhampton (9.4f) in February and was good second at Chelmsford (1m2f) in April; well held at Kempton last month but he travelled smoothly for a long way and may have stretched stamina on that step up to 1m3f; now drops back in trip/grade and he's not ruled out. |

Essentially holding form in defeat since February's gambled-on Wolverhampton success (9.5f), not for the first time shaping as if today's trip might be worth a go when a keeping-on second at Chelmsford latest (1m2f, had to wait for a run); still well treated on last year's peak Irish form. |

9st 9lb |
Confirmed his liking for this venue when winning a Listed race here last season (Mutasarref a neck behind), his second C&D win; improving for each outing this season and should run his race but a rating of 99 leaves him with a fair amount to find with a few of these rivals. |

Won this in 2023; consistent stakes performer with seven wins; won Heritage Stakes last season, beating Mutasarref by a neck; best subsequent effort came when fourth in Minstrel Stakes in July; two starts this season, improved from return to be beaten 3.25l behind The Lion In Winter at Leopardstown seven days ago; down in trip; mightn't want the ground too testing but shouldn't be far away and trainer has good course record. |

Seven career wins include this race last season, when he got up in the last strides to deny the odds-on favourite Mutasarref; produced his best subsequent effort when fourth in the Minstrel Stakes at the Curragh last July; dropped away tamely in the 7f Gladness Stakes at the Curragh on seasonal debut. |

10th May 2025 Good 1m 7f 144y Class 1 |
12st 0lb |
Has won both races since the tongue-tie joined cheekpieces, latterly making all for a narrow success over C&D three weeks ago (good); a 5lb rise isn't the end of the world but dominating this bigger field with likely pressure up front could be challenging. |
