G3 – 1993m – Turf
1 | Al Shababi | Favourite for both 2025 starts landing a Windsor maiden then third in a Haydock handicap. Likely to struggle. |
2 | Arabian Force | Has won his last two starts, latterly leading throughout for an easy Salisbury win over 1983m. Worth a crack at this G3. |
3 | Detain | Closed steadily and briefly looked like winning when an excellent third in the French Derby at Chantilly. A fast pace would suit. Bright chances. |
4 | Emit | Interesting, having looked smart on his last two starts latterly when a close third – placed second – in a strong-looking G3 at the Curragh. |
5 | Glittering Legend | Unbeaten this season, powerful at the finish at Kempton and Newcastle. Proven smart on turf also and this rise in trip looks fine. |
6 | Great David | Looks well suited by this trip, winning at Nottingham and handling the class rise to Listed company at Chester well, finishing third. |
7 | High Stock | Only his third start but very progressive. Just found a talented and more experienced rival too strong in Chester Listed company. |
8 | Jackknife | Won at Epsom first time out, then proving that he could handle stronger company when a slightly unlucky third at Sandown. Should relish this trip. |
9 | Reyenzi | Looks a talented horse for this trip winning after a tough battle in the straight in a classy G3 at the Curragh only to be demoted to third. |
10 | Sea Scout | In second for some of the way in the Derby at Epsom, fading 600m out. An easier grade and lesser trip here but may still struggle. |
11 | Stardrop | Looks outclassed here though it did look as though gelding had improved him when he easily won a Windsor handicap this month. |
12 | Tiberius Thunder | Not beaten far in a strong-looking G3 at the Curragh on his latest start. Needs to handle faster ground than he is used to but looks to try hard. |
13 | Tornado Alert | Both starts this season have been in G1 Classics, running well each time, fourth at Newmarket and sixth in the Epsom Derby. |
14 | Trinity College | Only beaten a length in the French Derby at Chantilly proved that he could handle G1 class. This won’t be much easier but he looks a live contender. |
