G1 - 2400m - Turf

1

Assistent

Very reliable sort who always runs his race. Latest easy G3 win over this trip at Baden-Baden, but this is tougher and is 0/6 at this Grade.

2

Atoso

Represents very small yard and worked his way through the ranks from low-class handicaps. Goes well for his rider, but this is surely many steps too far.

3

Lordano

Arguably Germany’s best stayer over long distances but has won over 2400m at G2 level and not disgraced behind subsequent G1 Del Mar winner Rebel’s Romance at Koln latest. Place chances again.

4

Marquisat

Yet to finish worse than third in seven-race career. Ran a very good third behind one of the highest rated horses in Europe (Goliath) in ParisLongchamp G2 latest. A bold show expected.

5

Straight

A revelation since changing stables, where routine and diet have been altered. Dominated the closing stages of a Milan G2 last time. Shortlist.

6

Quantanamera

Hard to win with but always held in high regard. Good winner of Deauville G2 earlier in the year. Could go close if she relaxes in the early stages.

7

Tiffany

Better than ever this season, winning three races including Baden-Baden G2. Latest third in Ascot G1 company (albeit against her own sex) makes her one of the form picks here. Winning possibilities.

8

Ancient Wisdom

A G1 winner at two and second in England´s principal Derby trial. Though disappointing in the Derby itself, he bounced back to take a Newmarket G3 in July, his last run. Likely to go well if not too rusty after the break.

9

Augustus

A close third in the German Derby at Hamburg. But that race has not worked out yet and he also needs to leave recent modest run well behind to figure here.

10

Panthera

Lowest rating of all runners and only win so far came in French maiden. Improving and trip and ground fine but thrown in at the deep end here.

11

War Chimes

Aggressively campaigned with the third in Epsom Oaks her clear best performance, but well behind twice since and needs to bounce back.
