1

Away He Goes

Second at 33/1 in this race last year. Well beaten over 2400m on return from break last month. A tough task.

2

Coltrane

Improved this year and won Listed race over 3200m easily this month. An interesting contender.

3

Enemy

Close third in G3 over this distance in April. On balance of form needs more.

4

Kyprios

Lightly raced, improving 4-y-o. Won G1 Ascot Gold Cup last month. A leading contender.

5

Nate The Great

Useful at lower level, including second in G3 over 3200m in May. A tough task.

6

Stradivarius

Outstanding stayer with a turn of foot, winner of this race 4 times. 8-y-o perhaps not as good now but troubled run when third in Ascot Gold Cup last month. Obvious chance.

7

Thunderous

Solid performer at up to 3200m but not won for two years and needs more to win this.

8

Trueshan

Top class stayer. Won 12 from 18 including this race last year and major handicap off top weight last month. Best on soft ground.

9

Princess Zoe

Effective on any going from 2400m to 4000m at up to G1 level. Disappointing in Ascot Gold Cup last month. Needs to return to best.
