Not the first time he's failed to fire at Ascot when a disappointing favourite in the Queen Anne, having previously looked better than ever in showing his trademark turn of foot to win the Lockinge at Newbury (good); renowned as a top-class domestic/international miler but he didn't run badly in last year's July Cup and should be fully effective at 7f; while fast ground shows him at his brilliant best, he nearly won a French Group 1 last season on good to soft; commands the utmost respect.

High-class miler domestically and internationally, predominantly on good and quicker ground in accordance with his bright turn of foot; readily justified strong market support in the Lockinge at Newbury most recently, registering a fifth success at the top level and looking better than ever; bit to prove at Royal Ascot, having flopped badly in the 2024 St James's Palace Stakes and finished only fourth in this race last year; otherwise a leading player on the figures.

His career-best RPRs have coincided with his last two encounters with slow ground, specifically a dominant win in the Group 2 Park Stakes at Doncaster (7f, soft) last September and a very creditable third in the Group 1 City Of York Stakes (7f, good to soft) last month; he travelled well in the lead at York and the return to 6f on slow ground could be right up his street.

Unraced at York but he does go on any ground, and his career-best form came on soft when impressing in a 7f Group 2 at Doncaster last September; creditable effort conceding weight all round when runner-up to Paborus in a Group 3 over 6f (AW) on his return to Britain in June and it's best to put a line through his run behind Lake Forest at Glorious Goodwood (7f) as he raced far too freely off a slacking pace; with a truer gallop on the cards and no ground issues, he could be a lively one.

One of the best 2yos around last season, with his head defeat of Gstaad in the Group 1 National Stakes at the Curragh (7f, yielding; unraced on softer) his most striking piece of form; a setback ruled out him out of the 2,000 Guineas after shaping encouragingly in a trial, and he got messed about at a crucial stage when fifth in the Sussex (one place behind Ten Bob Tony); this shorter trip might be a better fit for him and, as he still retains some upside, he looks a key player.
