Two wins at Meydan for current yard; best effort since returned to British soil when second in small field at Hamilton; rather weighted to the hilt on 2026 form but Harry Vigors takes off a useful 5lb.

Completed a Meydan double early this year; came up short in the Royal Ascot handicap he'd won in 2024 but ran respectably, behind an unbeaten rival, at Hamilton most recently; has to overcome the widest draw returned to a bigger stage.

Two quick runs at Glorious Goodwood three weeks ago, beaten only 2l when fifth of 20 on the Wednesday (7f, good to firm) then seventh of 18 in the Golden Mile on the Friday (good to firm) when he would have been closer with a clear run; it's possible he'll be involved; unproven on slow ground.

Ran encouragingly in a couple of races won by English Oak during his spell in Meydan and wasn't disgraced at Goodwood (7f) on Wednesday; however, still has a poor strike-rate as it's two years since his sole success; steps back up in trip/class.

Off a good mark he wore down a subsequent winner at Ayr (1m, good) and getting back on softer ground is a plus; raised just 3lb and he's on the shortlist; stays this far.

Well handicapped on his best form and some of that has been here, although not on his latest visit in July when only eighth; however, he's one of a few in here who would appreciate softening ground and firmly enters the reckoning.

Soft-ground specialist who landed a fifth success when scoring at Ayr (1m) in September; yet to get going in three starts this year but he's edging down the weights and the booking of Colin Keane catches the eye; requires monitoring in the market with every drop of rain in his favour.

Powered 6l clear on debut at Newbury (1m, heavy) in October 2024 and was instantly talked about as an Oaks contender for the following season; that failed to go to plan when fourth to Minnie Hauk in Cheshire Oaks; not seen again for 10 months when winning 1m3f Southwell novice (AW); disappointed at Nottingham last time when keen to post, ran with plenty of zest and weakened; too soon to write her off and likely has a better chance than bare ratings suggest.

Three turf wins over a straight 1m for Edward Bethell as a 3yo, latterly off a 2lb lower mark, before struggling during a limited campaign last year; would need a career-best effort for his new yard (also responsible for Spaceman) back from 11 months off.
