Won four of his five races at three; improved with cheekpieces after Queen's Vase fifth, won a 1m5f Group 3 at Newmarket by almost 9l and mastering older stablemate Illinois in the Goodwood Cup (2m, good); dug deep to hold off Rahiebb on soft ground in the St Leger; readily coped with Dallas Star at Navan last month and now continues on the Kyprios route to the Gold Cup.

J: Ryan Moore

T: A P O’Brien

Won four of his five races at three, the exception when a close-up fifth behind Carmers in the 1m6f Queen's Vase; improved with cheekpieces, winning a five-runner 1m5f Group 3 at Newmarket by almost 9l and mastering older stablemate Illinois in the Goodwood Cup (2m, good); dug deep to hold off Rahieb on soft ground in the St Leger (Carmers fifth); top-class stayer.

9st 3lb

J: Tom Marquand

T: A P O’Brien

Plenty went wrong for him racing wide in the 1m6f Queen's Vase at Royal Ascot but he rallied strongly for a close fifth, just behind three of today's rivals; much better with cheekpieces since, winning a five-runner Group 3 at Newmarket (1m5f) by nearly 9l and outgunning his older stablemate Illinois in their duel for the Goodwood Cup (2m, good); that makes him look the strongest stayer in this field and gives him almost the best form.

J: Wayne Lordan

T: A P O’Brien

Plenty went wrong for him racing wide in the 1m6f Queen's Vase at Royal Ascot but he rallied strongly for a close fifth; built on that with first-time cheekpieces in five-runner Group 3 at Newmarket (1m5f, again good to firm) 19 days ago, going on over 3f out and galloping nearly 9l clear, which suggests he can be a leading candidate for this big 2m prize.

J: Ryan Moore

T: A P O’Brien

Ballydoyle colt who opened his account in Navan maiden (1m2f) on seasonal debut; hit a flat spot on his way to good fifth in the Queen's Vase since, under 1l behind Furthur, and the form can be marked up (had a wide trip); now goes in headgear, which could well prove beneficial; respected.
