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.
