Off since last July; not one to trust implicitly but he again brings clearly the best form
7 (3)	Haskoy b Frankie Dettori · Ralph Beckett	Frankie Dettori · Ralph Beckett	125	t	114-	109	126	115	251d	—	—	+7	35.6	15/8 35%
2nd past post in the St Leger on just third start, little more than six weeks after debut
3 (4)	Israr b Jim Crowley · John & Thady Gosden	Jim Crowley · John & Thady Gosden	128	—	13310-	106	126	118	196d	—	—	+19	27.9	17/2 11%
One to consider despite this move out of handicaps and into a Group race
5 (2)	Old Harrovian ch Oisin Murphy · Andrew Balding	Oisin Murphy · Andrew Balding	128	—	7-11	94	114	-	40d	—	—	+5	13.2	10 10%
This race demands much improved form but it's hard to pin down just how good he is
4 (6)	Kemari b James Doyle · Charlie Appleby	James Doyle · Charlie Appleby	128	p	226-42	109	126	100	77d	—	—	+10	16.7	12 8%
Form player but it's a little disconcerting that he has not won since 2021 Royal Ascot
1 (7)	Bolshoi Ballet b Ryan Moore · A P Obrien	Ryan Moore · A P Obrien	128	—	69/4-3	110	126	69	28d	—	—	+14	19.6	16 6%
Some smart form in 2021; ran only once last term and also below form on 2023 reappearance
2 (1)	Gaassee b Tom Marquand · William Haggas	Tom Marquand · William Haggas	128	t	1/130-	103	119	101	273d	—	—	+15	22.2	12 8%
Gelded since lame in the Ebor (favourite) last August; needs to resume improvement
