Previous results

In depth

Formwatch

Eastern Purple (IRE) Narrowly beaten in this race last year; has to be respected, especially with Frankie Dettori booked.

Rudi's Pet (IRE) Goes well here having won this in 1999 and was a respectable third last season; does not seem as good now.

Rushcutter Bay Better form over six furlongs and on softer ground; difficult to fancy.

Afaan (IRE) Tends to find at least one too good in this company usually; no reason to suggest that will change here.

Bishops Court Very speedy (as when winning at Epsom); needs luck in running as normally held up.

Borders Usually blazes a trail from the front as when winning at Sandown; should be suited by this fast track.

Coastal Bluff Group 1 winner in his youth; not as good now and readily opposable.

Ellens Lad (IRE) Not always the most consistent of sprinters; goes well for Pat Eddery.

Proud Native (IRE) Getting on a bit now and not as good as he was; Kieren Fallon an interesting booking.

Dietrich (USA) Faces a stiff task under a penalty but stable's runners always warrant the upmost of respect.

Ivory's Joy Not up to this company; surprising if good enough.

Rozel (IRE) Open to improvement but needs to show it to take a hand here.

Red Millennium (IRE) Speedy filly but liable to be outclassed.

Romantic Myth High class as a two-year-old when winning the Queen Mary; two-year-old campaign seems to have left its mark.

Superstar Leo (IRE) Very speedy two-year-old; has not raced with the same zest this term.
