9st 1lb

J: Faleh Bughenaim

T: Hamad Al Jehani

Solid start to his career comprised a maiden success and two close seconds at Group 2 level; not in anything like the same form since, comfortably held in warm 3yo handicap most recently; chance depends on whether first-time hood prompts a turnaround.

J: James Doyle

T: Hamad Al Jehani

Twice a runner-up in Group 2s last year; ended his 2yo campaign with a couple of lesser efforts though and he made a low-key return at Chantilly (5.5f, good to soft; Group 3) in April; up against it on his handicap debut.

9st 3lb

J: James Doyle

T: Hamad Al Jehani

Useful colt whose 6f form includes second-place finishes in Group 2 races at the Curragh (for previous yard) and Goodwood; ruined his chance by racing too freely in the Gimcrack last time and may benefit from this drop in trip; top on ratings.

J: James Doyle

T: Hamad Al Jehani

Acts on good to firm and good to soft; solid record, having won C&D maiden comfortably then finished half-length second in two Group 2 events over 6f, latest at Goodwood (Richmond Stakes) on debut for new connections; manifestly threatening to win a race of this prestige.

T: Hamad Al Jehani

High promise over 6f for Kevin Ryan, scoring comfortably at York (good to soft) then clear second in the Group 2 Railway Stakes at the Curragh (yielding); bought by Wathnan Racing and moved to Hamad Al Jehani's yard since; leading contender on form and should have even more to offer.
