J: Ryan Moore

T: A P O’Brien

Dual Group 1 winner who has a record of 6-9 overall and had a mitigating factor (set an unsuitably steady pace) in his 2025 King George defeat in sole C&D attempt; played a distant second fiddle last time when bidding for a Coronation Cup double at Epsom but nothing behind the winner showed their form in the rain-soaked conditions; the peak form he showed when beating Calandagan 12 months earlier gives him a big chance in this field.

T: A P O’Brien

High-class performer who has a record of 6-8 overall and 2-3 at Group 1 level, adding to his 2024 St Leger win when knuckling down the better to beat Calandagan in this contest (good to soft) 12 months ago; combination of cheekpieces and setting an unsuitably steady pace perhaps contributed to his King George defeat behind that rival; reappearance success in the Ormonde at Chester (1m5f, good) sets him up nicely for another Coronation Cup bid.

J: Ryan Moore

T: A P O’Brien

Underperformed in the King George on last appearance, having set a pace that perhaps wasn't strong enough given his proven stamina (St Leger winner); cheekpieces worn that day are now removed; mostly progressive otherwise, still has a good strike-rate (5-7) and showed tip-top form to beat Calandagan in the 2025 Coronation Cup at Epsom; the pick on ratings, accordingly.

J: Ryan Moore

T: Coolmore & Westerberg

Ballydoyle colt and son of 2001 King George winner Galileo; record suggests he won't mind what the weather does; sometimes sweats, including in both starts this term, and looked a difficult ride on reappearance; bounced back in the Coronation Cup at Epsom where he knuckled down well to beat Calandagan, taking form figures to 111121 and Group 1 score to 2-2 (gained the other win in last year's St Leger); has very progressive RPRs in the main; highly respected, assuming he takes well to first-time headgear.
