Listed – 2005m – Turf
1 | Buckaroo | Best yet when close fourth in G1 Prix d’Ispahan over 1850m at Longchamp last month. A strong contender. |
2 | Foxes Tales | Sixth in this race last year. Mixed form since. Needs to be at his best. |
3 | King Of Conquest | Improved this year and won two close finishes against useful rivals. Likely to be involved again. |
4 | Royal Champion | Improved over 2000m last year, winning Listed race at Ayr impressively. Soft ground against him when well beaten in G2 last month. |
5 | Bolshoi Ballet | Not won and lightly raced since 2021 but back to form when narrowly beaten in G3 over 2400m last month. Interesting. |
6 | Cadillac | Second in this race last year. Returned to form when winning at Epsom this month. Acts well on fast ground. |
7 | Certain Lad | 7-y-o. Midfield in this race last year. Not won since 2020. Needs to do better. |
8 | Checkandchallenge | Never raced beyond 1600m. Finding G1/G2 level tough. Decent chance if copes with extra distance. |
9 | Francesco Clemente | Would have won all four races but failed to negotiate bend when just beaten in Listed race over 1979m at Goodwood. Leading contender. |
10 | Highland Avenue | Not won since 2021 but creditable efforts at G3 level this year. In the mix. |
11 | Notre Belle Bete | Career best when third in competitive handicap last month over 1800m. Usually races at shorter. In the mix. |
12 | Poker Face | Big rise in handicap mark after impressive end to last season. Creditable runs in G3 and G2 races since. In the mix. |
13 | Raadobarg | In good form for new stable but never raced beyond 1800m and has to show that it suits him. |
14 | Saga | Just beaten in Britannia Stakes at Royal Ascot last year over 1600m and on reappearance at Newmarket over 1800m last month. A strong contender. |
15 | Savvy Victory | Won 2 from 15. Distant last in handicap over 2015m at Epsom this month. An unlikely winner. |
16 | Solid Stone | 7-y-o. Third in this race in 2021. Not quite as good as he was and faces some talented younger rivals. |
