It is safe to say STRADIVARIUS has gone from strength to strength since finishing third in this last season, and arrives here as the standout stayer of 2018 having won all the major long distance prizes this season, landing the inaugural Weatherbys Hamilton Stayers Million bonus in the process. The Gold Cup winner is hard to oppose, with only soft ground as a concern, and the Sea The Stars colt can end the season unbeaten. Aidan O'Brien is mob-handed in opposition as he looks to retain the prize Order Of St George won last season, and Irish St Leger winner Flag Of Honour may give him the best chance to do so having downed the Irish Derby winner comfortably that day, and the son of Galileo has impressed over 1m6f on the last three occasions. Sir Erec is interesting stepping up in trip by half a furlong and appears the Ballydoyle second string, with Cypress Creek likely to be employed in pace-making duties, while Thomas Hobson is given an each-way chance having won the Group 2 Doncaster Cup when last seen and will have no issue with the forecast ground.
STRADIVARIUS can cap off a tremendous 2018 with a fifth consecutive win. He made short work of his rivals again in the Lonsdale Cup at York and could be the one to beat in the staying division for years to come. Sir Erec was mightily impressive when winning at Limerick and is part of a strong challenge from Ballydoyle along with Irish Leger winner Flag of Honour.
He has won four times from 6f to 7f on good to firm and soft ground. Beaten 19l behind Polydream when 19th of 20 on his latest outing in the Group 1 Prix Maurice De Gheest at Deauville over 6f (good) in August.

Conditions look to have come right for the soft-ground loving defending champion Librisa Breeze, who is a different animal with cut in the ground and could leave some modest performances this season behind him having been all-the-rage in the ante-post markets. However, 2017 winner THE TIN MAN proved to be as good as ever when thriving in the mud to land Haydock's Group 1 Sprint Cup. He can follow up here, confirming form with the runner-up that day, Brando, who was also second to the selection in this in 2017, with Donjuan Triumphant (fourth), Sands Of Mali (fifth), Speak In Colours (sixth) and Tasleet (eighth) all held in that contest and now needing career bests to turn the tables. William Haggas' Tasleet looks the most likely of those beaten rivals to show improvement now tried in blinkers and a tongue-tie, while Harry Angel also disappointed in that Haydock race and the Group 1 winner has plenty of questions to answer now following that run and the unfortunate events in the Diamond Jubilee Stakes here during the Royal meeting.
THE TIN MAN looked as good as ever when winning the Haydock Sprint Cup and could be worth siding with to follow up at a track where he goes so well. Last year’s one-two Librisa Breeze and Tasleet are respected, while it would also be silly to ignore Harry Angel.
She has won four times from 1m to 1m 4f on ground varying from good to firm to good to soft. Beaten 2 1/4l by Sea of Class when second of 8 at 4-1 on her latest outing in the Group 1 Darley Yorkshire Oaks at York over 1m 4f (good to firm) in August.

LAH TI DAR was unable to maintain her unbeaten record when second to Kew Gardens in the St Leger at Doncaster last month. That said, John Gosden's filly lost very little in defeat with her lacking the experience of the winner due to a setback earlier in the campaign and there still looks to be a fair bit of improvement to come. Stable companion Coronet has been running consistently well in Group 1 events over 1m4f throughout 2018 with placed efforts behind Waldgeist in the Grand Prix de Saint-Cloud and Sea Of Class in the Yorkshire Oaks. She handles softer ground and will pose a solid threat along with Kitesurf, winner of the Prix Vermeille at Longchamp last month, and Hydrangea, who could very easily bounce back to form having produced her career-best effort in this race 12 months ago.
LAH TI DAR doesn't have anything like Kew Gardens to live with this time, so she has standout claims of taking this first Group 1 to top off what's been an unbelievable year for her family and owners. The French challenger Kitesurf looks the obvious main danger while Pilaster still has the potential to prove herself a top-notch filly.
Winner of five races from 1m to 1m 1f on ground varying from good to soft. Beaten 10l behind Rhododendron at 7-2 when eighth of 14 on his latest outing in the Group 1 Al Shaqab Lockinge Stakes at Newbury over 1m (good to firm) in May. Has won at Sandown and Doncaster this season.

ROARING LION looks a class apart compared to the opposition. Having taken some time to come to hand in the spring, his first two efforts of the year resulting in defeats at Newmarket in both the Craven and the 2000 Guineas, John Gosden's colt has gone from strength to strength since the Dante at York. He travelled like the best horse in the Derby before not quite seeing out 1m4f, but has since established himself as a leading 10 furlong horse with victories in the Coral-Eclipse at Sandown, the Juddmonte International at York and the Irish Champion Stakes at Leopardstown. The return to a stiff mile should pose no concern. Recoletos had excuses at Royal Ascot and has since stepped up to chase home Alpha Centauri in the Prix Jacques Le Marois before winning the Prix du Moulin at Longchamp. He ran well on this card in the Champion Stakes 12 months ago when not seeming to fully stay 1m2f, so this contest looks ideal. Laurens, Lord Glitters and Addeybb all boast solid credentials, but an outsider who could hit the frame is Century Dream. Simon Crisford's colt has been running well on ground faster than ideal, including over C&D when fourth in the Queen Anne, and he arrives here fresh after an international foray in the Arlington Million.
RECOLETOS had excuses in the Queen Anne at Royal Ascot and confirmed himself a Group 1 miler when winning the Prix du Moulin at Longchamp last month. He shades the vote over Roaring Lion, who is top-class over 10f but faces a different test here. Addeybb and Lord Glitters complete the shortlist.
Winner of six races from 7f to 1m 6f on ground varying from good to soft - heavy. Finished 3 1/2l behind Enable when fifth of 19 on his latest outing in the Group 1 Qatar Prix De L'Arc De Triomphe at Longchamp over 1m 4f (good to soft) earlier this month.

This is not a vintage renewal of this contest but it is an ideal opportunity for CRACKSMAN to round off what has been a rather disappointing campaign with a victory. The son of Frankel bolted up in this race 12 months ago but, despite winning twice at Group 1 level this year, he has failed to recapture that form. Poet's Word defeated him in the Prince Of Wales's Stakes over C&D back in June where the fast ground was blamed. With that in mind, he has no excuses this time in regards to underfoot conditions and everything seems to be in his favour. Crystal Ocean is arguably the form horse based on 2018 performances and that includes a narrow defeat in the King George over 1m4f here in July. His recent defeat to Enable was no disgrace, especially as he was giving 8lb to the dual Arc winner. Capri has not had a lot of racing this year and he put in great effort to finish fifth in the Arc a couple of weeks ago.
CRACKSMAN lit up this meeting when a 7-length winner 12 months ago, and though he hasn't matched that level so far this season, blinkers may help him focus and travel with a bit more verve. The ground has come right and he can sign off his career in the perfect fashion, with Capri a sporting choice to uphold 2017 St Leger form with Crystal Ocean and fill the forecast spot.

RAISING SAND returned to winning ways in the Challenge Cup over 7f here two weeks ago and that was his first start this year on soft ground. The son of Oasis Dream will relish these soft conditions and because he was racing 1lb wrong last time out, the six-year-old's 6lb penalty is effectively reduced to 5lb. Mitchum Swagger is another who should be at his best on this surface and he has strong form claims if you can forgive his comeback run at Haydock last month. His sole previous start this year came when he chased home Addeybb and Lord Glitters in the Lincoln back in March. That form has been boosted multiple times since and those that beat him on that occasion are now rated 18lb and 9lb higher respectively. His form figures in handicaps on soft ground read 133 and the defeats came in the Hunt Cup and Lincoln. Kynren has failed to win this year but David Barron's gelding has performed well on multiple occasions and that includes a fine third in what appears to be a very strong renewal of the John Smith's Cup back in July. He has crept up in the ratings and was well held in the Cambridgeshire last time out, but the soft ground should play to his strengths. Others worthy of consideration are Humbert, Mjjack and Via Via.
SAFE VOYAGE has improved another chunk this term, defying a hefty rise on the back of his facile reappearance success in determined style at Galway in August. With a good record fresh to call upon, he is fancied to defy another rise in the weights back at 1m. Kynren, returned to a soft surface, and Raising Sand are 2 likely threats though, whilst Hathal may represent a spot of each-way value.
