The three-year-old classic generation holds a solid recent record in this feature event taking the last four renewals. That trend could change in 2025 with two older horses looking the strongest chances. Royal Ascot winner OMBUDSMAN (1) posted a good second on seasonal return in the course and distance G3 Brigadier Gerard Stakes before a career best success by 2L attempting the 1m2f G1 Prince Of Wales Stakes at Royal Ascot last month. Top pick. French runner SOSIE (2) is a three-time G1 winner following a 1L success in the 1m1 1/4f G1 Prix d'Ispahan at Longchamp (France) six weeks ago. Main danger. CAMILLE PISSARRO (3) rates the best three-year-old in the line-up after a 0.5L victory in the 1m2 1/2f G1 Prix du Jockey Club at Chantilly (France). Holds every chance. The G1 2000 Guineas wining RULING COURT (6) might bounce back rising in distance.
