West Acre

9st 10lb

J: Darragh Keenan

T: George Scott

Has plenty of ability (two Group-race wins in Dubai) but slow starts have crept in, notably in the Stewards' Cup 18 days ago; the experiment with blinkers has been quickly aborted but he is a risky proposition for now.

9st 8lb

J: Darragh Keenan

T: George Scott

Quickly established himself as a smart sprinter, winning Group 2 and Group 3 prizes at Meydan (both 5f; good to firm and good) in early 2025; the addition of cheekpieces saw him return to his best when second in a 5f Group 3 on Dundalk AW last October; not quite at his best in two runs in Dubai in January and absent since; new blinkers need to have a positive effect.

10st 3lb

J: Seamie Heffernan

T: George Scott

British raider won twice at Meydan in the spring, landing a Group 2 and a Group 3 (both at 5f); came up short in a 6f Group 1 there in April; below-par last twice on turf but he is 2-3 on the AW so could rebound in first-time cheekpieces after an 111-day break.

9st 5lb

J: Callum Shepherd

T: George Scott

Won twice in novice company on AW as a 2yo; form took off in Dubai earlier in the year, winning a Group 3 and a Group 2 over 5f; he has struggled in Group 1 races on his last two starts, though, and his 5lb penalty could leave him vulnerable today.

9st 1lb

J: Callum Shepherd

T: George Scott

Had a promising, rather than stellar, 2yo season but he raised the bar when breaking the 5f track record in a Group 2 at Meydan (good to firm) in January, without having too hard a time either; he wasn't so overbearing when following up next time but this trip will suit better than the 6f he ran over when eighth to Believing there in April; not dismissed.
