G1 – 1600m – Turf

1 Accidental Agent The shock winner of this race in 2018 but refused to race in last year’s version and he will be an outsider here. Best on fast ground.
2 Bless Him Doesn’t look to have enough class to win this but he clearly likes Ascot’s straight 1600m, coming from last to first to win a good to firm ground handicap here in 2019.
3 Circus Maximus Dropping him back to this distance has been key according to his trainer, and he won a G1 over the round 1594m here a year ago. Wants a strong pace. Good chance.
4 Duke Of Hazzard Highly progressive in the second part of 2019, winning consecutively a Listed event, a G3 and a G2 – all at this trip. Has gears and stable in good form.
5 Escobar Usually takes a few races to hit top gear each season so will probably struggle. He did come from last to first to win a handicap over this straight mile last year.
6 Fox Chairman Lightly raced but improved race by race in 2019, decisively winning a 2000m Listed contest at Newbury when last seen. Wants slow ground.
7 Marie’s Diamond Has group winning form over shorter distances but looked at home over 1600m when leading throughout and winning easily in Listed company at Newmarket this month.
8 Mohaather Seems best on a straight track, twice winning G3’s over 1400m at Newbury. Not yet proven at this trip but should last it if the ground is not slow.
9 Mustashry A versatile and talented gelding though he never threatened to win this race last year. Prior to that was a G1 winner over this trip at Newbury.
10 Plumatic Has some high class winning form over this trip, and, on his first start for this trainer, just found one rival too strong in a Chantilly G3 last month.
11 Roseman Lightly raced and yet to run a poor race, closing down 2019 with a comfortable 1600m Listed win at Newmarket. Best on slow ground.
12 Skardu A G3 winner on his first 2019 start and then ran consistently well in high class company including in a G1 here. Good or fast ground ideal.
13 Space Traveller Came with a sustained surge from the back to win a 1400m G3 at this meeting last year. Proved he stays 1600m with a G2 Leopardstown win.
14 Turjomaan A big galloping horse whose trainer thinks will be ideally suited by this test.  Injuries have restricted his career but he’s reportedly in great shape now.
15 Billesdon Brook A really talented mare who has twice won G1’s over 1600m at Newmarket. Tough, she races prominently and is hard to pass when on her game.
16 Terebellum Twice a G2 winner during a light career, latterly when accelerating too well for classy opposition over 2000m at Newmarket this month. Drops down in distance.
