G1 – 2000m – Turf
| 1 | Auguste Rodin | Last year’s winner turns up like in 2023 after a poor run in the G1 King George VI and Queen Elizabeth Stakes. Sparkled in pre-race workout. Best on fast ground. |
| 2 | Hans Andersen | The son of Frankel played role of pacemaker for stablemate City of Troy in the International Stakes. |
| 3 | Luxembourg | Won this in 2022, and beaten half a length by Auguste Rodin last year. Proved his class in G1 Coronation Cup in May. Almost 3 lengths behind Auguste Rodin when sixth in King George VI and Queen Elizabeth Stakes on last start. |
| 4 | Royal Rhyme | A tough assignment for this four-year-old bay colt. Beaten over 10 lengths by City of Troy at York last time out and well held by Auguste Rodin at Royal Ascot in June. |
| 5 | Economics | Likely favourite based on his potential rather than his bare form. Impressive winner of G2 Dante Stakes. Followed up in G2 at Deauville. This is his moment to shine. |
| 6 | Ghostwriter | A 33-1 third to the high-class City Of Troy in the G1 International Stakes at York. Best form on a fast surface. Scope for further improvement. |
| 7 | Los Angeles | Followed up his Derby Stakes third with success in Irish equivalent at the Curragh. A G2 winner at York since. Drops back in trip. |
| 8 | Shin Emperor | Japanese contender temporarily based in France. Runs here in preparation for the Prix de l’Arc de Triomphe. Handles soft ground. First run since Tokyo Yushun (Japanese Derby) third in May. |
