In a typically competitive sprint, it may pay to side with the UK challengers on this occasion, headed by Archie Watson's ALBASHEER. He got up to force a dead-heat with Summerghand at York after waiting for room and may better that effort if he gets a clearer run. David O'Meara's nine-year-old is still more than capable. though, and could get involved once again, alongside maiden winner Never Shout Never, who caught the eye at Cork ahead of his handicap debut. Dandyville and Fresh also make the shortlist in a fascinating renewal.

SUMMERGHAND and Albasheer couldn't be seperated in a competitive York sprint last month and can again come to the fore here with David O'Meara's grand veteran taken to edge it on this occasion. The home challenge is headed by C&D winner Prisoner's Dilemma, although Volatile Analyst, Heavenly Power, Never Shout Never and The Highway Rat all need factoring into a highly competitive sprint too.

The ground was soft when NEVER SHOUT NEVER made a winning handicap debut at Cork but he looks progressive and should handle this going

It will be interesting to see how Never Ending Story goes back in a Group 2, but JACKIE OH still looks the pick of Aidan O'Brien's quartet on the evidence of her fetching victory in Group 3 company at Gowran in July. The daughter of Galileo would probably prefer easier ground but she may still have too much class for this field, with Araminta and Mashia others to note from a possible value perspective.

JACKIE OH was most impressive when landing a Group 3 at Gowran last time and, with further progress expected, he can get the better of Trevaunance, who sets the standard. Araminta is also on the up and deserves plenty of respect.

Preference is for LUMIERE ROCK, who has been hugely consistent at up to 1m4f and acts on any ground. She would be a deserving winner

Art Power might not be quite the force of old, but Tim Easterby's stable star has recorded four victories in as many visits here and merits the utmost respect with that in mind. Bradsell defeated HIGHFIELD PRINCESS in the King's Stand at Royal Ascot but the latter reversed the form at York and last year's winner gets the nod. The classy Night Of Thunder mare bolted up 12 months ago and she is fancied to lead home a one-two-three for the UK.

HIGHFIELD PRINCESS shaped best in the Nunthorpe and this high-class mare is so reliable that she's a straightforward choice to add another success at the top level. Bradsell has beaten the selection once already this season, so he's an obvious danger, while Art Power's outstanding course record throws him into the reckoning.

Last year's wide-margin winner HIGHFIELD PRINCESS is likely to get a sterner test but can take the measure of Bradsell

YLANG YLANG has created a fine impression in both of her victories to date and looks more than capable of landing a hat-trick now stepped up to the highest level. Vespertilio (second) finished behind the selection at Leopardstown in July and franked that form when winning a Group 2 over course and distance last month. The Night Of Thunder filly is feared most, ahead of the consistent Porta Fortuna, who looks a potential improver now upped to 7f.

Aidan O'Brien's 1.5 million Frankel filly YLANG YLANG has created an excellent impression in going 2-2 thus far and is fancied to take this step up in class in her stride in a fascinating Moyglare Stud. Albany victor Porta Fortuna should find this step up to 7f to her benefit and is next on the list ahead of the unexposed Red Viburnum and Sweet Solero heroine Fallen Angel.

The tactics were executed much better on VESPERTILIO when she won the Debutante impressively and she will be hard to beat

CITY OF TROY could hardly have been more impressive when pulling clear of his rivals in the Superlartive Stakes at Newmarket last month. That performance suggests that the son of Justify is more than capable of making his mark at Group 1 level and he merits the utmost respect. That said, Bucanero Fuerte cannot be discounted following his four-length win in the Phoenix Stakes here last month, while similar comments apply to the selection's stablemate Henry Longfellow after his Futurity success.

A mouthwatering clash between CITY OF TROY and Bucanero Fuerte. The latter was most impressive in the 6f Phoenix here and isn't opposed lightly with 7f promising to suit him even better but City of Troy looked something out of the ordinary when trouncing his rivals in the Superlative and can stretch his unbeaten record to 3.

Ryan Moore is declared for CITY OF TROY who can enhance his Classic claims by accounting for Phoenix Stakes winner Bucanero Fuerte

All eyes will be on the returning KYPRIOS as he makes his first appearance since completing the perfect season last year with a demolition job in the Prix du Cadran at Longchamp. Unfortunately, the five-year-old has been sidelined for the majority of this campaign due to a setback, but he has clearly been pleasing connections in recent weeks and is a cut above the opposition based on his achievements in 2022. Stable companion Emily Dickinson (second) and Eldar Eldarov (fourth) both had no chance from their positions in the Goodwood Cup, but the pair are more than capable of taking advantage if the selection falters.

This year's renewal of the Irish St Leger features the much-awaited return to action of the outstanding KYPRIOS who was unstoppable over 1¾m+ last year and can make light of his absence and land a fifth Group 1 win in a row. Stablemate Emily Dickinson can give him most to do.

Last year's staying star KYPRIOS suffered a joint infection which has delayed his return. If he has avoided ill effects he will win

NATIVE AMERICAN has not been in action since an impressive victory at York in May and he looks to have been laid out for this valuable contest with Colin Keane booked for the ride. Richard Fahey's colt could be anything and he is preferred to Nikki Swango, who continues to improve with each start, as well as promising Navan fourth Lively Set. Eve Johnson Houghton won this contest last year and she appears to have two solid contenders this time around in Mercian Warrior and Revenue.

British raiders have mopped up this valuable sales race and NATIVE AMERICAN makes plenty of appeal for Richard Fahey, who took this in 2020 with one under Colin Keane. He made an impressive start when scoring at York in May and could be hard to beat if improving as expected. Nikki Swango is feared most, ahead of Lively Set.

The one to be on here could be NIKKI SWANGO(nap), an improving filly who ran into a very good one at Cork last time and can land this

Johnny Murtagh sent out a 1-2-3 in this event 12 months ago and can taste further glory courtesy of TAKE HEART, who ended Golden Spangle's hat-trick ambitions at Naas and is open to plenty of further improvement. Starry Eyed and Genuine Article are other unexposed three-year-olds to consider, while the latter's stablemate Coeur d'Or tops the weights on the back of his Irish Cambridgeshire triumph, although third home Crystal Black could reverse that form. Didn'thavemuchtodo seems on a nice mark for one who has gone close in Listed company more than once.

Up-and-coming 3-y-os TAKE HEART and Genuine Article are put up against with the field, with marginal preference for the former on the back of his taking win at Naas a fortnight ago. Of the rest, Midgam should be all the better for his reappearance/stable debut and has been given a chance by the assessor.

The answer could be MIGDAM, a three-time winner for Sir Michael Stoute who caught the eye with a very nice run at Naas two weeks ago

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.
