Winner of the 2023 Chesham; again ran well at Royal Ascot last year, second in 23-runner Kensington Palace Stakes; sprang a surprise in a four-runner 1m1f Group 3 at Leopardstown on penultimate start; this may be too sharp on reappearance. |

Runner-up last year in the Chesham over C&D and 6f Cheveley Park at Newmarket (both on good to firm) but folded tamely in the Irish 1,000 Guineas on her reappearance; perhaps 1m stretched her stamina that day but she has something to find even so and Ryan Moore prefers River Tiber. |

Good second at Musselburgh (7f) with reappearance under his belt but is by no means certain to go one better off 103 in this deep field; has gained all handicap wins off marks in in the high-90s and still needs to prove he can break the triple-digit barrier. |

11st 6lb |
Has performed well in several notable handicaps, including a strong success at Windsor (2m; beat the subsequent County winner) in January and good second at the Cheltenham Festival (upped to 2m4f, soft) last time; solid contender who looks set for another big run. |

Fairly useful hurdler at about 2m and ran creditably (lost two places close home; finished fourth) in the Fred Winter at this meeting 12 months ago; bagged a valuable pot at Windsor (soft) in January but form dipped last time; goes into unknown territory over this longer distance. |

5yo who races prominently and has been progressive this season in some competitive handicaps, finishing second at Ascot (1m7f, good to soft) in December and winning at Windsor (2m, soft) last month; up 5lb for last time but he did it nicely and could continue to improve; respected. |

Won 1m2f Group 3 Ballysax Stakes in 2024 (1m2f, heavy); last win was at Dundalk early last year, having faced some stiff tasks since, career-best when front-running second to ready winner Scandinavia in Navan Listed last month; not as good behind same rival since under similar tactics in Group 3 Saval Beg; bit to find on ratings and step up to 2m looks a big ask. |

Record of only 1-8 for Andrew Balding and has looked quirky but he appeared to run very well in the Derby (1m4f, good to soft; 50-1 fifth of 16) most recently; has since changed ownership and stable; leading claims provided the Epsom effort is backed up. |

1st Jun 2024 Good To Soft 1m 4f 6y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
His 2yo season was chaotic at times, including when winning a 1m AW novice, but there was no sign of awkwardness here on final 2yo start, nor when bearing up well in a tight finish to 1m Listed AW race on return; made most of the running and kept on steadily in 1m2f Listed race at Newmarket (good) since and this step up in trip should suit on pedigree; needs to find much more but the yard's outsiders have proved well worth a look in this race. |

Stablemate of Golden Mind; Sea The Stars colt who caught the eye at Windsor (6f, good to firm) where he was slowly away and got behind before finishing nicely for third of 11; evidently crying out for this longer trip and ought to improve; similar profile to Count Palatine. |

Settling her has seemingly become a near-impossible task, but she nevertheless saw out 1m4f very well when second in the Irish Oaks and winning the Yorkshire Oaks; that Group 1 form gives her a big chance and she won on soft ground last term, but a very shortlived effort from the back in 1m2f Group 1 at Longchamp (hooded) 13 days ago was disconcerting. |

Useful effort in defeat at Beverley (about 7f) last May and confirmed that stiff tracks suit when winning here (7f, good to firm; sole course start) in August; improved again when successful at Ayr later and no surprise if he comes on plenty from first two runs in 2026. |
