G3 – 2403m – Turf

1 Yibir Gelded since runner-up to useful rival in Listed race over 2200m at Goodwood in May. Since won G3 well over 2600m. Interesting and a live chance.
2 Youth Spirit Won G3 over 2500m in May then well beaten in Derby. A tough task.
3 Aleas Won Listed race over 2200m recently. More required.
4 Belloccio Won Listed race in France last year but well beaten when raised in class this year. An unlikely winner.
5 Ottoman Emperor Cheap yearling. Done well, winning last three of four races but this a big step up in class. A tough task.
6 Sir Lucan Mixed form. Narrowly won Listed race over 2600m in May. Needs to improve.
7 Third Realm Promising and beat Adayer over 2300m on soft ground before finishing well behind the same horse in Derby. Excuses for that and could bounce back.
8 Wordsworth Odds-on when narrowly beaten by stablemate Sir Lucan in May. Since run well behind top class Hurricane Lane in G1s. A good chance.
