G1 – 1300m – Turf
1 |
Saint Lawrence |
Fifth in G3 company at Deauville last month. Third last year to King Gold on soft ground. |
2 |
Mill Stream |
Last month’s G1 July Cup winner at Newmarket will be hard to beat on that form. Won twice at track last year. |
3 |
Khaadem |
Won over 1200m in a G1 at Royal Ascot (Mill Stream third). Looking to bounce back from disappointing effort latest start when 10th of 11 behind Mill Stream at Newmarket. |
4 |
Shouldvebeenaring |
Notched up his sixth career win at Deauville in G3 company last month. Tough and talented. One for the shortlist. |
5 |
King Gold |
Last year’s winner. Lines up in good shape after repeating his 2023 win in a G3 at ParisLongchamp. Tougher opposition this time but should run well. |
6 |
Game Run |
Last of 11 behind Shouldvebeenaring on latest start. Place hopes on the strength of his G2 win over 1000m at Chantilly last season. |
7 |
Matilda Picotte |
Irish-trained four-year-old filly took third in G1 1000 Guineas last year. Ready to strike again after two starts in 2024. |
8 |
Exxtra |
Very capable French-based filly with a G3 win over 1400m and two seconds this term. Scored in listed company over 1200m at the track last season. |
9 |
Beauvatier |
Supplemented after confirming his promise and speed when finishing third in last month’s G1 Prix Jean Prat over 1400m. |
10 |
Lazzat |
Out to make it six wins from six starts in 2024. The last two came at G3 level. First attempt at this higher level. |
11 |
Puchkine |
In top shape and seeking a second G1 at Deauville after landing last month’s Prix Jean Prat (1400m). |
12 |
Bellano |
Scored over 1400m at Compiegne in April. First run since a listed win over 1400m at ParisLongchamp in May. |
13 |
Havana Cigar |
Finished two and a half lengths back in second behind his stablemate Puchkine last month in the G1 Prix Jean Prat over 1400m. |
14 |
Flora Of Bermuda |
Supplemented on the back of her G3 success at York in July over 1200m. A progressive filly and clearly on the upgrade. |
15 |
Classic Flower |
Admirably consistent with three runners-up finishes in group and listed class this term. Ran well in fifth in G1 Commonwealth Cup at Royal Ascot on last start. |
16 |
Great Generation |
Finished fourth on heavy ground in a French 1000 Guineas trial at the track in April. Has won a G3 over 1400m in England and just missed out on a place in a G3 since. |
