Started 2025 with a bang for new connections when winning a slowly run, four-runner Group 3 at Ascot (2m, good to firm) in April; remote with ambitious targets on next three starts and although sixth of 11 in 2m handicap at Chester in September was an upturn, markedly better is required to win this..

Given wind surgery and tongue tied for new connections this season, which he started with a bang when winning a slowly run, four-runner Group 3 at Ascot (2m, good to firm) in April; remote since, however, in the Gold Cup there, a French Group 2 and the Ebor at York; this is a lesser handicap but he does not inspire great confidence even so.

C&D Listed winner in August last year and clearly not right when a beaten favourite when last seen; the Melbourne Cup will be his long-term target and there's almost certainly more to come but this could just be a pipe-opener with a long season on the horizon.

Just one 2yo run and went 3-3 in 3yo campaign when winning Listed race at Leopardstown (1m6f, good); soft ground may not have suited next time; reappeared with short-head defeat in Group 3 at Leopardstown (1m6f, good) and this very lightly raced 4yo could have potential off today's mark.

Progressive handicapper two seasons ago, winning three times; ran well in defeat in stakes races last season; showed the ability to stay this trip in events at Leopardstown, Down Royal and the Curragh; solid Group 3 form, linked to the likes of Earl Of Tyrone, Emily Dickinson and Raise You gives her every chance at this level; probably wants better ground.

Only fourth start when third in the 1m6f Copper Horse at this meeting last year (good to firm); well beaten in two top races in his only other handicaps and odds-on when winning two non-handicaps on AW in February, not needing to be near his best; fifth in Group 3 five weeks ago won't be good enough either but he's 2lb lower than this time last year, so case can be made.

Signed off last season with a Group 3 success at the Curragh and returned with a career best Listed win at Navan when bolting up by 5l; her record on quicker ground isn't quite as convincing but she may come on for her return and she's the one to beat; entered in Ascot Gold Cup.
