Has shown nice improvement in four starts to date and arrives here on a hat-trick following wins at Beverley and Ripon. Made all in good style last time and his rivals wouldn't want to give him an easy lead on AW debut.

$200,000 yearling who is by Triple Crown heroine American Pharoah and has taken big leaps in four starts so far. Won at Newmarket on second start before heading to France for a Listed third and second. Sets a clear standard on AW debut.

5/1
Goodwood debut winner probably matched that level when well held in Group 2 Superlative Stakes at Newmarket. Disappointed at the same track since and while he needs to bounce back, he's not one to give up on just yet.

Forecasts

Saqqara King (1/1), King's Caper (11/8), Wild Thunder (5/1), Dramatic Sands (5/1)

Verdict

It's a fascinating race with four potentially smart colts from strong yards. For the all-powerful Godolphin operation, SAQQARA KING could be hard to beat and sets a high bar from his Listed efforts in France. There's enough pace among his rivals to suggest King's Caper won't get an uncontested lead but he arrives on the upgrade following back-to-back wins. Dramatic Sands ran well following a tardy break last time and has more to offer at this distance while Wild Thunder needs to be back to his best.
  1. Saqqara King
