J: David Egan

T: Robson De Aguiar

Group 1-winning juvenile over C&D; returned from aborted stud career last year and won a 5f Listed race at Naas (good) and a C&D Group 3 (6f, good); fine third in the Group 1 Flying Five before failing to run to expectations at the Breeders' Cup; well below best on soft on seasonal debut at Cork; better over 5f at Naas, but needs more to make an impact here.

Top class 2yo returned from aborted stud career last year and won a C&D Listed race (good) and a Curragh Group 3 (6f, good); fine third in the Group 1 Flying Five before a below-par run at the Breeders' Cup; soft ground not ideal for seasonal reappearance and better expected now; chance.

J: Colin Keane

T: Adrian Murray

2023 Phoenix Stakes winner; disappointing last autumn (including when seventh in this race) after a Group 3 win at Naas in the spring; after a brief spell at stud, made a reassuring start to the campaign with a 5f Naas win over Powerful Nation in May; followed up with a 6f Group 2 win here last month; big player.

J: David Egan

T: Adrian Murray

2023 Phoenix Stakes winner; disappointing last autumn (including in Ascot race won by Kind Of Blue) after a Group 3 win at Naas in the spring; after a very brief spell at stud, made a reassuring start to the campaign with a 5f Naas win in May; capable of a big run if at the top of his game.
