On his day Al Aasy would be good enough to win this, but he is very unreliable and by and large it pays to oppose him. On that basis preference is for LION'S PRIDE who ran well at Dohar last time, will be race-fit and ought to give another good account. Pride Of Arras is dangerous. He probably wants 12f these days and has always looked talented, gelding having helped to realise that potential. Tenability is another that could go well. He was the subject of an infamous ride at the Shergar Cup but has progressed massively since then and could go on again this term. |

Keen off slow pace and possibly unsuited by soft ground when well beaten in Preis von Bayern (Group 1) at Munich latest; in excellent form in Group races before that; stays 12f, acts on yielding and good; largely consistent. |

Slow break exacerbated dislike for testing ground and ran poorly down the field in St Simon Stakes (Group 3) here; ran to best taking Glorious Stakes in August; effective 10-14f, acts on any ground, best on fast; talented but enigmatic and very tricky ride. |
