Better than ever for this yard, winning the Yorkshire Cup here before shaping well in the Gold Cup at Royal Ascot. Tends to do well in small fields, so he warrants respect.
|
The dominant stayer since landing this in 2017, completing Stayers' Triple Crown in the same season two years later. Excuses at Ascot last time (denied a clear run) and remains the one to beat.
|
Took another big prize when landing the Queen Alexandra at Royal Ascot and has run well over hurdles since. Likely to be outclassed in this company, however.
|
Added to his fine Royal Ascot record when third in Queen Alexandra (21.6f) in June, and has remained in form since. This is too much for him, though.

Stradivarius (4/6), Spanish Mission (15/8), Trueshan (11/4), Stratum (11/1), The Grand Visir (28/1)
STRADIVARIUS still holds all the aces despite meeting with defeat in the Gold Cup, and he's well worth a chance to turn the form around with Spanish Mission from that day. Trueshan would arguably benefit from softer ground, but he's a tough character who is rarely off his game, so he's unlikely to be far away.
