Form & Verdict

Has spent most of his career in Dubai, with a chunk in France as well last year; smart in both, including two soft-ground Listed wins in France and his 66-1 second in the Dubai Gold Cup (2m, good) this March; debut for new yard in York Group 2 (2m, good) five weeks ago was right up with his best form, finishing strongly to go down by a short head; fine chance on that.

Has spent most of his career in Dubai, with a chunk in France as well last year; smart in both, with his 66-1 second in the Dubai Gold Cup (2m, good) this March the icing on the cake after two French Listed wins; ran poorly at Longchamp in May on his only start since and has now changed stables.

Form & Verdict

Won a Listed race over 1m6f last August and another over 1m4f this June; also twice runner-up in Group races at Longchamp over about 1m7f on softer than good, including 18 days ago; should give his running but others in this bring serious form and don't have to carry his penalty.

Form & Verdict

Switched to Flat this summer; won his Flat handicap debut at Killarney (2m1f) by 17l and runner-up with a smart effort at York (2m, again good to firm) last month; creditable third on the drop back to 1m6f for Listed race at Chester on latest start, with first-time cheekpieces (now discarded); needs better but return to 2m looks a big plus and he may still be open to progress.

Seen mostly over hurdles (fairly useful) but switched to the Flat this summer with two wins and two seconds from four attempts; won his Flat handicap debut at Killarney (2m1f) by 17l and found only one too good for him with a smart effort at York (2m, again good to firm) ten days ago; this drop back in trip is a worry but he has cheekpieces first time.

Seen mostly over hurdles (fairly useful) but has made a big splash switched to the Flat this summer with two wins and a second from three attempts; latest start saw him make his Flat handicap debut in seven-runner race at Killarney (2m1f, good to firm; at 5-6) and he led over 2f out to win it by 17l; this is a much higher mark but no shock if he can win again.

Form & Verdict

Ex-Irish 6yo who saw no action in 2023; best effort this term when beaten a head at the Shergar Cup meeting at Ascot (2m, good; acts on soft) on penultimate start but this race demands much better.

Ex-Irish 6yo (went well there in the mud) who missed 2023; reappearance showed plenty of ability but he suffered in the early scrum at Royal Ascot (50-1) and weakened right out of it at Newmarket July festival (16-1); cheekpieces last two starts; stamina is not cast-iron but he is down the weights.

Form & Verdict

Transformed with blinkers on the last two of his five starts, making all in 22-runner races for both a 1m2f maiden at the Curragh and valuable 1m5f handicap at Leopardstown (both on good ground); hugely on top in both and it's hard to say just how good he could become; this race demands much better form but he needs plenty of respect.
