Last Updated: 16 May 2025 23:51:27

A whole host of potential improvers with bright futures ahead of them, but the vote goes to LOVE OLIVIA. Karl Burke's filly made light work of her opposition on her introduction at Wolverhampton last month and she is clearly held in high regard at Spigot Lodge. The biggest threat may emerge from Harry's Girl, who displayed a willing attitude to score at Newmarket. Fellow debut winners Eternal Solace and Awraad add further spice to the mix.

Top Tip: Love Olivia (6)
Watch out for: Harry's Girl (5)

2024: (16 ran) Botanical ( 2 ) , Age 4 , Wgt 9-8 , SP 5/2 - James Doyle / R Varian

Forecast: 9/2 Tony Montana , 5/1 Salamanca , 11/2 Thunder Run , 13/2 Brioni , 8/1 Have Secret , 8/1 Flying Frontier , 12/1 Austrian Theory , 14/1 Bint Al Daar , 14/1 Zain Blue , 16/1 Financer , 20/1 Westerton , 20/1 Debora's Dream , 20/1 Man Of Desert

Last Updated: 23 Sep 2025 03:27:40

Having signed off his last campaign with a triumph at Sandown, Flying Frontier likely has more to offer this year. However, the lack of a recent run and 2lb nudge up the ratings does demand more from James Tate's charge and TONY MONTANA ticks more of the right boxes. The son of Kingman arrives on the back of a good second at Goodwood and a 2lb higher mark looks workable on this second outing of the season. Have Secret and Austrian Theory are others to consider.

Top Tip: Tony Montana (3)
Watch out for: Flying Frontier (4)

Last Updated: 16 May 2025 23:51:29

Unbeaten duo Glittering Surf and Kon Tiki share similar profiles stepping up in class and neither can be dismissed in an open affair. However, there is a sneaking suspicion that we've yet to see GULYA fulfil her potential and she could be worth chancing. Roger Varian's filly endured a luckless passage when denied by a short head at Ascot last month and, granted better luck, compensation could be on the cards.

Top Tip: Gulya (5)
Watch out for: Glittering Surf (4)

Last Updated: 18 May 2025 16:18:31

The globetrotting Rebel's Romance has only tasted defeat once on these shores - in last year's King George - and he ought to go very close if seeing out the trip. With stamina proven, though, SWEET WILLIAM is taken to come out on top. Last seen chasing home outstanding stayer Kyprios in the Long Distance Cup at Ascot on Champions Day, the Gosdens' gelding can pick up where he left off to set up a tilt at the Gold Cup. Continuous is a class act on his day and first-time blinkers could give him an added boost.

Top Tip: Sweet William (2)
Watch out for: Rebel's Romance (1)

This is fiercely competitive and only a tentative vote can go to AGAINST THE WIND. Fifth in a valuable sales race here as a juvenile, it didn't work out in the Harry Rosebery at Ayr next time, but he returned with a convincing handicap triumph at Thirsk last month. Now 6lb higher but well drawn, there is plenty in his favour and he can go close. Mearall appears to be on a competitive mark so must be of interest along with The Quiet Gent, who might appreciate dropping to the minimum trip. Loom is also noted.

John and Thady Gosden can complete a hat-trick of wins in this race with BOWMARK. Impressive at Kempton on debut, the son of Kingman sets a good standard after a neck defeat to a progressive rival in a Listed race at Newcastle. He should be very hard to beat back in novice company. Point Of Contact, who had a luckless Crown Of Oaks back in third at Newbury, is feared most, although nicely-bred filly Sea The Wonder, is a must for a betting check.

Only one of the last 10 favourite has emerged successful in this race and, with a maximum field of 22 competing, this year's edition is naturally competitive. Feel The Need won this off 4lb lower in 2024 and is respected with his repeat bid, while cases can obviously be made for penalised runners Eldrickjones and Delicacy based on recent from. However, it could be worth taking a chance on AL MUQDAD, who is a specialist over this trip and has proven to be effective from his current mark. From opposite sides of the draw, Yaaser and Sword are just two others with solid credentials.

Top Tip: Al Muqdad (10)
Watch out for: Feel The Need (13)
