4/1
Bookended last season with a pair of handicap victories and, after 8 months off, proved better than ever when scoring with a bit in hand at Lingfield (11.6f) in May. Could still have more to offer this year, so he's one to note as he goes up in grade.

Most progressive at 3 yrs, winning twice at Group level before excellent fourth in the Melbourne Cup. However, wasn't able to match that form last year and fared no better in first-time blinkers in the Ormonde at Chester on his return. Not written off back down in grade, though.

Completed a 4-timer when landing a listed race at this course (9.9f) last May. Without a win since, but ran up to his best when second to a progressive type in the Aston Park Stakes at Newbury (12f) on his latest outing. Leading contender back at listed level.

5/1
Won a listed race in Bahrain in a light 2023 campaign, but not in the same form in the Middle East early this year. Back in Britain, had the run of race when third of 6 in listed race at this course (9.9f) 16 days ago, so will need to find more as he goes back up in trip.

50/1
Fairly useful filly who soon left behind a lesser effort when fourth in listed race at Pontefract (12f) when last seen 11 months ago. Remains lightly raced for her age, but has something to find as she makes her reappearance.

Forecasts

King Of Conquest (11/10), Deauville Legend (10/3), Aimeric (4/1), Passion And Glory (5/1), Three Priests (50/1)

Verdict

KING OF CONQUEST produced his best effort of the season when runner-up in the Aston Park at Newbury 22 days ago, worn down only in the final strides, so he could be ready to return to winning ways back down in grade. Aimeric took another step forward on his return and is feared most in his hat-trick bid, ahead of Deauville Legend.
