20th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 211y Class 1 |
9st 3lb |
Has finished in front of Kalpana twice but that rival had excuses both times; far from certain to confirm the placings but he's still one of the main players on the figures back down in grade; his Group 1 form features a success and creditable second in the last two runnings of the Hong Kong Vase at Sha Tin (1m4f, good); unsuited by the way the race panned out at Meydan latest start. |

6th Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 1 |
9st 7lb |
Absent since finishing third in the Coronation Cup three months ago; successful several times when fresh, most recently in 1m4f Group 1 at Sha Tin last December; big player dropped back in grade and he is 2-2 on AW. |

6th Jun 2025 Good To Soft 1m 4f 6y Class 1 |

Campaigned mostly at 1m6f-2m; took his form to a new level in two attempts over 1m4f last year, winning Group 2 at Newmarket (good to soft) and Group 1 at Sha Tin (good); behind Calandagan in the Sheema Classic two months ago but isn't fully exposed at this trip. |

3rd 2 (1) |
15th Sep 2023 Soft 2m 1f 197y Class 1 |
9st 7lb |
Good middle-distance performer for most of his career but won the Dubai Gold Cup over 2m in March; close third in the 1m6f Yorkshire Cup at York in May but well beaten in the Gold Cup at Ascot and the Goodwood Cup the next twice, and was about 8l behind Coltrane at York last time; others preferred. |

Good middle-distance performer for most of his career but won the Dubai Gold Cup over 2m in March; close third to Giavellotto in the 1m6f Yorkshire Cup here in May but well beaten since in the Gold Cup at Ascot and the Goodwood Cup, so others are preferred. |

13th Sep 2024 Good To Soft 1m 6f 44y Class 2 |
9st 7lb |
Front-runner who won this race in 2021, on his way to four Group wins including the Group 1 Goodwood Cup in 2023; the major concern is that his only subsequent run last year was disappointing and something has also been missing in his three races this term, but this is a step down in class and he should still be good enough. |

6th 5 (2) |
23rd Aug 2024 Good To Firm 2m 0f 56y Class 1 |
9st 5lb |
Front-runner who gave his rivals the slip in this race two years ago and the Group 1 Goodwood Cup in 2023; the major concern is that his only subsequent run last year was disappointing and so were his two races this term. |
12/1 |

4th 1 (6) |
5th Jul 2024 Good To Firm 2m 0f 50y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Front-runner who was a Listed winner at York (1m6f, good to firm) last June and gave his rivals the slip to follow up in the Group 1 Goodwood Cup (2m, good to soft); his season ended with a lesser run, and his comeback was also disappointing, but this C&D winner has leading claims if back on song. |

5th Nov 2024 Standard 2m 0f 56y Class 4 |
10st 4lb |
Long in the tooth and on the downgrade now but still retains a good chunk of ability, as evidenced by his fourth of 20 in Royal Ascot marathon (2m4f, good to firm) in June; moves back up in trip after respectable fourth in deeper race than this here (12.5f) last month; must be considered. |

22nd Oct 2024 Standard 1m 4f 99y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
Winless in well over two years and takes a drop in trip on his belated AW debut, having run a couple of times over 2m4f in the summer; this is less competitive off a career-low mark and he has claims if stamina comes into the equation. |

27th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 2m 0f 56y Class 2 |
9st 7lb |
Off since a mixed hurdles campaign ended in March; formerly very smart on Flat but he's not scored in this sphere since 2023, had a disappointing 2025 and all wins have been on soft or heavy ground; tailed off in this race in 2024. |
