10st 4lb

J: Harry Vigors

T: Hamad Al Jehani

Two wins at Meydan for current yard; best effort since returned to British soil when second in small field at Hamilton; rather weighted to the hilt on 2026 form but Harry Vigors takes off a useful 5lb.

J: Faleh Bughenaim

T: Hamad Al Jehani

Completed a Meydan double early this year; came up short in the Royal Ascot handicap he'd won in 2024 but ran respectably, behind an unbeaten rival, at Hamilton most recently; has to overcome the widest draw returned to a bigger stage.

10st 4lb

J: Jack Nicholls

T: Hamad Al Jehani

High-class handicap form at 6f to 1m on a range of surfaces and he was up against it when second to a progressive winner in this race last year; has since won two handicaps at Meydan for new yard and perhaps felt the lack of a recent run when mid-division in the Buckingham Palace at Royal Ascot last month; leading player.

9st 10lb

J: Faleh Bughenaim

T: Hamad Al Jehani

Campaigned at Meydan this year for new yard, winning two handicaps then not disgraced in Group 3; two attempts at this prize comprise a ready success off 4lb lower in 2024 (good to firm; recorded peak RPR) and poor effort (in cheekpieces) last year; likely player provided he's in top form.

J: Christophe Soumillon

T: Ed Walker

Highly tried after his impressive win at 2024 Royal Ascot (7f, good to firm) but has mainly been disappointing; second of six at Hamilton (1m) 12 days ago was clearly his best show this season but he needs to build on that today over a new trip.
