Verdict

HAATEM has long since advertised his durability and unearthed newly-revealed stamina when adding a second Royal Ascot success to this tally in this race 12 months ago. Expected to be all the better for his reappearance at Goodwood 25 days ago, all looks set fair for another big run this time around. Low-mileage Nahraan chased home a pair of high-class colts on his final start as a 3-y-o and rates an intriguing runner on return. Enfjaar, Wimbledon Hawkeye and Galen complete the dangers.

Haatem (Ire) silk

Smart and versatile sort who landed 2024 Jersey Stakes and added another dimension to his game when taking this race 12 months ago, digging deep to work his way past reopposing Galen. Left the impression he'd come on for last month's Goodwood reappearance and this presumably been the target again.

Nahraan silk

Quickly reached a smart level last year, bringing up the hat-trick in listed Glasgow Stakes at Hamilton (11f) in July. Lost little caste in defeat when chasing home a pair of high-class colts (including the subsequent Arc winner) at Longchamp on final outing and he's very interesting on return.
