Trainer Aidan O'Brien triumphed in this contest last year and he can repeat the dose with newcomer HENRY LONGFELLOW, a colt bred in the purple being a son of multiple Group 1 winner Minding. He may well need further in time, but the two-year-old may have enough pace on this occasion to see off the likes of stablemate Master Of The Hunt and Mythology, who drops in class having performed with credit in the Railway Stakes. Ocean Conquest and Versatile are other newcomers to consider.

There should be more to come from MYTHOLOGY, who was rather run off his feet in Group 2 company last time. This stiffer test of stamina will suit and he can open his account. There are plenty of interesting newcomers on show including the Aidan O'Brien pair, Henry Longfellow and Master of The Hunt. They may provide the chief threat.

The experience gained by MYTHOLOGY in two races could prove crucial in a likely duel with Henry Longfollow

A fairly open contest in which PEARLS AND RUBIES gets the vote. Only narrowly denied in the Chesham at Royal Ascot last month, she shaped as though this shorter stamina test won't inconvenience her and looks the one to beat. Gunzburg is her biggest danger back up in distance following a fair effort in Listed company at Tipperary earlier this month. She finished a close-up second in Group 2 company before that, while Gaenari adds further spice to the race.

GUNZBURG showed much improved form when runner-up in the Airlie Stud Stakes here earlier this month and probably found the race coming too soon when down the field in a listed event at Tipperary 4 days later. She could be worth chancing over Pearls And Rubies, who is bound to be popular after her Chesham near-miss. The once-raced Kairyu and Buyin Buyin can fight out third spot.

The Chesham second PEARLS AND RUBIES was able to win over 5f on her debut. Even though she needed every yard, this trip should be fine

BIG GOSSEY may be 9lb higher than when he was a close second in this race last year, but he has flourished since and makes strong appeal in his bid to go one place better than 12 months ago. His fourth-placed finish in the Rockingham 20 days ago puts him firmly in the picture and, with the additional yardage not expected to be an issue, he can defy a 2lb rise to score here. However, there are dangers aplenty, with Hurricane Ivor, Verhoyen and Rockingham second Master Matt all live dangers.

A typically competitive renewal of this valuable handicap, which can go the way of ALBASHEER. He shaped better than his finishing position would suggest on his belated handicap debut in the Wokingham at Royal Ascot and is lurking on a potentially handy mark. Blairmayne was in good form during the spring and he could be involved in the finish, along with Strike Red. Others to consider include Big Gossey and Master Matt.

It may be worth taking a chance with HISPANIC, who looked useful on soft ground at two and has found 5f inadequate in three 2023 starts

Ladies Church arrives on the back of a comfortable success in Listed company and she merits the utmost respect along with White Lavender, who landed a Group 3 in France when last seen. Go Athletico made a winning stable debut for Adrian McGuinness last month, when beating Ano Syra, and he is another to consider, though preference is for ART POWER. Tim Easterby's stable star finished an admirable fourth in the July Cup at Newmarket last Saturday and can maintain his unbeaten course record down in class.

An interesting renewal of this Group 2 with ART POWER taken to maintain his unbeaten record at this track having bounced straight back to form with an excellent effort in the July Cup last week. Ladies Church, White Lavender and Go Athletico are all credible rivals, though.

Last Saturday's July Cup fourth ART POWER boasts a flawless record in Ireland and can maintain that trend on this rare venture over 5f

SAVETHELASTDANCE has shown plenty of ability in her career to date and she holds the most compelling claims in this contest. Aidan O'Brien's three-year-old looked a superstar when winning easily in the Cheshire Oaks before running with plenty of credit when second in the Oaks at Epsom last time, therefore she should take the beating. Warm Heart won the Ribblesdale at Royal Ascot on her previous outing and is feared most, although she will have to improve again to score here, while Bluestocking completes the shortlist.

SAVETHELASTDANCE is taken to make up for her short-priced reversal in the Oaks at Epsom by landing the Irish version. Warm Heart can confirm her Ribblesdale superiority over Bluestocking and Lumiere Rock and give her stablemate most to do.

Conditions should come right for SAVETHELASTDANCE (nap) who probably found the ground a bit too lively when an excellent 2nd at Epsom

After disappointing behind the reopposing Yashin (first) and Point King (second) in a Group 3 at Leopardstown, the classy Emily Dickinson was back on song with a very creditable fourth in the Gold Cup at Royal Ascot last month. With forecast softer conditions in her favour, Aidan O'Brien's filly has strong claims here, but slight preference is for the ground-versatile ROSSCARBERY, who has also fared well at Group 1 level. 10 furlongs wasn't far enough for her in the Pretty Polly here three weeks ago, but she emerged with plenty of credit in fourth and the recent Munster Oaks winner touched off Emily Dickinson when landing the Group 3 Stanerra Stakes last summer.

EMILY DICKINSON holds the clear edge on form so this course scorer is fancied to resume winning ways on the back of her good effort in the Ascot Gold Cup. Pretty Polly fourth Rosscarbery rates the chief threat to Aidan O'Brien's smart stayer with the progressive Okita Soushi and unexposed Gooloogong appealing as the pick of the rest for minor honours.

This looks like a good opportunity for EMILY DICKINSON who sets a solid standard and gets her conditions

DEMOCRACY hasn't progressed as maybe expected following his debut success here in April, twice finishing down the field in Group contests at this track, but he is worth a chance to return to form, especially with softer underfoot conditions potentially being in his favour. Oligopoly has run with credit on both starts to date and shapes as if a drop to 6f would bring about improvement, while Prince X J, who contested the Coventry at Royal Ascot, last week's Navan winner Ocean Baroque and Sanshiro are all capable of a decent showing.

Joseph O'Brien has a good record in this race and may be able to add to it with OLIGOPOLY. He again showed plenty when beaten only by a pair of well-bred newcomers at Gowran last month and looks one to keep onside now switching to a nursery, especially with a handy claimer booked. Ocean Baroque and Poppadom are a couple of potential threats.

Preference is for last week's winner OCEAN BAROQUE\ who appreciates soft and he's taken to confirm form with \bSanshiro

MACHNAMH arrives here on the back of a close second against colts at Limerick a month ago and that form suggests that the daughter of Teofilo could be hard to beat back against her own sex. Beauty Bella is a useful filly who could prove to be the main threat to the selection following an encouraging effort at Leopardstown. Coco Crush has an eye-catching pedigree and is a newcomer to note, while Perfect Poise and Swan Band complete the shortlist.

COCO CRUSH has an eye-catching pedigree and represents a top yard, so she's capable of making a successful start. Machnamh is the clear pick of those with form and should be able to take advantage if the selection doesn't come up to expectations.

The standard is set by MACHNAMH who was only narrowly denied at Limerick and a repeat of that level of form may make her hard to beat

Other notable horse racing events in the UK include the Derby, held at Epsom Downs Racecourse in Surrey, and the Royal Ascot, held at Ascot Racecourse in Berkshire.

Horse racing in the UK is regulated by the British Horseracing Authority (BHA), which sets rules and standards for the industry. It is responsible for the welfare of racehorses and the safety of jockeys and trainers, as well as ensuring fair and transparent racing practices.

In addition to its economic and cultural importance, horse racing in the UK also plays a significant role in the breeding and training of thoroughbred horses.
