Previous results

In depth

Formwatch

Albarahin (USA) Probably just a few pounds below this class.

Best of The Bests (IRE) The pick of the Godolphin boys but plenty to prove here on reappearance.

Distant Music (USA) Looks better suited over a mile.

Beckett (IRE) Recent win suggested that he'll get further than a mile but you'll be taking that on trust.

Carnival Dancer Still unexposed; good jockey on board; market move would be significant

Chancellor (IRE) Probably needs it soft and recent form doesn't inspire too much confidence.

Hawkeye (IRE) Has to be respected but has to answer questions about the ability to stay this trip.

Indian Creek Hard to fancy in this grade.

Nayef (USA) Landed three group 3's but this will confirm whether he is of top class.

No Excuse Needed Has looked like needing this sort of trip and has to be a live chance if he stays.

Tobougg (IRE) Solid form credentials at this level. Has Dettori made a mistake here?

Rebelline (IRE) Found 1m4f too far latest; probably not quite good enough here.

Equerry (USA) Well thought of by the Dubai team but opposable today.
