OMBUDSMAN puts his unbeaten record on the line here after wins at Newmarket, Leicester, Deauville and Longchamp. As the Night Of Thunder colt was unraced as a juvenile, he could go on to even better things this year. Almaqam comes out top on official ratings and is a serious danger in receipt of 3lb from the selection. He shaped encouragingly on his return over C&D last month, while trainer Charlie Appleby can do little wrong at present and his pair of Military Order and Ancient Wisdom also deserve plenty of respect. |
An open and tightly-contested renewal. ALMAQAM has leading form prospects on his sound reappearance third over C&D last month and, briefly hampered then and conceding race fitness to runner-up Ancient Wisdom, may well be able to reverse that form now and take this prize. There is a strong suspicion that Enfjaar is capable of better so with an excellent record fresh to his name too, he may be next best. William Buick has plumped for Military Order in preference to other options so this in-form 5yo may be able to claim minor honours and prove best of the rest. Ancient Wisdom has a leading form chance too though raceday rain would aid his cause. |

Four from four in first season on the track last year, winding up with Longchamp Gr 3 in September; this is harder for sure under a penalty but has the potential to progress again in 2025. |
