Race Tip
KYPRIOS (3) remained unbeaten in six consecutive races last season including a success in the G1 Gold Cup at Royal Ascot. Resumed after a lengthy lay-off with a promising second in the G1 Irish St Leger and could come forward for the run. Leading chance second-up. TRUESHAN (7) pursues fourth victory in this contest. Started the campaign off poorly at this track but looked a different horse winning the G2 Doncaster Cup. Followed up with a success in the G1 Prix du Cadran at Longchamp. COLTRANE (2) finished runner-up behind the second mentioned in this race twelve months ago. Improving this season although may fall short of the top two selections. SWEET WILLIAM (5) and TRAWLERMAN (6) complete the shortlist with place claims.
