Champion stayer of recent years attempts to win this for the third time in the last four years; unblemished record last season included wins at the highest level in Ascot and Goodwood Cups, Irish St Leger and Prix Du Cadran; reappeared for traditional Vintage Crop win at Navan last month and another straightforward task here en route to Ascot. |

23rd Aug 2024 Good To Firm 2m 0f 56y Class 1 |
9st 5lb |
Attentions concentrated on the Flat since his runaway handicap win at Royal Ascot last June; has not quite lived up to that dazzling display, this term running respectably in the Yorkshire Cup here and the Gold Cup at Royal Ascot, seemingly stretched by 2m4f (good to firm) in the latter, before a lesser show at the Curragh five weeks ago; big player if back at his peak. |

9st 7lb |
Absent since finishing third in the Coronation Cup three months ago; successful several times when fresh, most recently in 1m4f Group 1 at Sha Tin last December; big player dropped back in grade and he is 2-2 on AW. |

6th Jun 2025 Good To Soft 1m 4f 6y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Campaigned mostly at 1m6f-2m; took his form to a new level in two attempts over 1m4f last year, winning Group 2 at Newmarket (good to soft) and Group 1 at Sha Tin (good); behind Calandagan in the Sheema Classic two months ago but isn't fully exposed at this trip. |

19th Oct 2024 Soft 1m 7f 127y Class 1 |
9st 1lb |
Won a heavy-ground maiden as 2yo but unraced on softer than good since reappearance; fifth in the 1m4f King Edward VII at Royal Ascot; raised his game markedly when stepped up in trip on his last two outings, finishing fourth to stablemate Kyprios in the 1m6f Irish St Leger and justifying favouritism in the extremely valuable 2m1f Irish Cesarewitch (handicap); blinkered latest outing, replacing visor; may well try to make the running and, given recent form, he'd be much better than a mere pacemaker. |
