3yo campaign featured wins in the Chester Vase and Geoffrey Freer, plus good second in the St Leger; appeared to need his Newbury reappearance run and should be spot-on for this return to the Roodee; leading player provided there's no jar in the ground (underperformed on good to firm last year). |

20th Jul 2024 Good To Soft 1m 4f 0y Class 1 |
9st 6lb |
Losing spell goes back to her 2yo win but she couldn't have gone much closer to putting that right in Listed race at Pontefract (1m4f, good to firm) four weeks ago, going down by a nose (reopposing Divina Grace was third); claims if in similar form but she does have a bit of an in-and-out profile. |

Losing spell goes back to her 2yo win; respectable third in this race last year but has a question mark over current form; comfortably held in both outings this term. |

9th Sep 2023 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 1 |
9st 7lb |
Record on the AW reads 121, his latest win coming in a Listed contest over C&D in November 2021; was returning from 656 days off when a creditable third of seven in a Group 3 at Newbury (1m5f, good to soft) three weeks ago, but although the run should have brought him on he has a bit to find in this company. |
25/1 |

3rd 4 (7) |
19th Aug 2023 Good 1m 5f 61y Class 1 |
9st 7lb |
Missed most of 2021 and all of 2022, this being his first run for 656 days; regular progress in his last two campaigns (the exception on soft ground) and graduated from handicaps to a 1m4f AW Listed win when last seen; going beyond 1m4f should suit if he's sufficiently tuned up and that's not ruled out from this yard; needs a close look. |

19th Aug 2023 Good 1m 5f 61y Class 1 |
9st 4lb |
5yo who was much improved initially this season, notably for 1m4f Listed win at Goodwood (good to soft) in May; plenty of experience of soft ground but tailed off when upped to 1m6f on heavy at Goodwood two weeks ago; forgiven that given the extreme conditions but still needs overall improvement. |

6th 2 (2) |
5th Aug 2023 Soft 1m 6f 0y Class 1 |
9st 8lb |
5yo who is much improved this season; beat Time Lock by 1l at level weights with a strong late bid in 1m4f Listed race here (good to soft) in May, following a close call on very soft in France; never able to challenge over 1m4f on good to firm in the Lancashire Oaks on latest start, a creditable run nevertheless and she's an interesting prospect for 1m6f. |
15/2 |

5th 2 (6) |
8th Jul 2023 Good 1m 3f 175y Class 1 |
9st 7lb |
Lightly raced 5yo who beat Time Lock by 1l when a Listed winner at Goodwood (1m4f, good to soft) in May; could have more to offer and her claims will be boosted if the ground is slow, but she needs to take another step forward if she is to pose a threat here. |

19th Aug 2023 Good 1m 5f 61y Class 1 |
9st 7lb |
Raced mostly on good/firmer but ran well on soft once in France; broke a losing sequence when dropping from Group races to a five-runner Listed event at Newmarket (1m4f) seven weeks ago on latest outing; has proven stamina and plenty of form that would see him seriously involved. |

1st Jul 2023 Good To Soft 1m 4f 0y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Raced mostly on good/firmer; losing spell goes back to his Queen's Vase success two years ago but he has shown smart form on occasions since, including in Group races at Meydan this year; has the advantage of recent match practice, unlike Al Aasy and stablemate New London; runner-up in this race 12 months ago; can't be dismissed. |

0-8 since his novice wins but second of seven in Group 3 at Goodwood (1m4f, good to soft) two weeks ago was his best form, dictating the pace and keeping on stoutly; this extra 1f looks manageable but he needs better still to win this. |

Not disgraced in Ascot handicap (1m4f, good to soft) last month despite failing to settle; 0-7 since his novice wins but has useful C&D form, having finished fourth in the Gordon Stakes at this meeting last year. |

15th Jun 2024 Good 1m 5f 188y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Won 1m3f maiden (soft) on debut last April; improved form in defeat in Listed race and 1m5f Group 3 on next two starts, before a lesser show in Group 3 last August; given wind surgery three days later and reappeared with creditable fourth of 13 in handicap here (1m4f, good) one month ago; has a bit to find but today's longer trip can suit and this lightly raced 4yo remains open to progress. |
