Dam is Ascot Gold Cup winner Estimate; inconsistent for Sir Michael Stoute in 2024; beaten on the nod at Leopardstown (1m4f) last May on debut for new yard, after which he was all the rage for this race but it was a nightmare for favourite backers, as he was shuffled back (from stall 1) and towards the rear entering straight before running on nicely until denied any room again in the last half furlong; absent since but same mark today and he is surely capable of significantly better; granted better luck, he should have a big shout.

J: Ryan Moore

T: W P Mullins

Dam is Ascot Gold Cup winner Estimate; inconsistent for Sir Michael Stoute last term, best efforts when second on good to firm in June and drubbing his opponents over 1m6f on AW in August; tailed off in the Melrose at York (6-1) final 3yo outing but made a bright start for new yard when beaten on the nod at Leopardstown (1m4f) last month; needs improvement but there is a great deal to suggest he arrives here with major potential as a stayer.

Wide margin AW winner at Wolverhampton (1m6f) off 81 for Michael Stoute last August and 11lb higher now; best turf effort a 0.5l second of 6 at Windsor (11.5f, gd-fm); lacks a run but respected on debut for Willie Mullins.

J: Daniel Tudhope

T: Sir Michael Stoute

Acts on good to firm, below form once on good to soft; had been threatening to win in handicaps before he made no mistake at Wolverhampton (AW) last time on the step up to 1m6f, coming from the rear to lead 2f out and take it eased down by just over 7l; tongue tied last two starts; up 11lb and in class but he has plenty more to offer with staying tests.

J: Luke Morris

T: Sir Michael Stoute

Six-race maiden who is threatening to win; record of 232 (AW/turf) since handicapping and the form stacks up well; clear second at Windsor (11.5f) most recently; bred to relish this new trip and receives weight all round; looks poised to go one better.
