Verdict
MINNIE HAUK is the obvious place to start. She's barely put a foot wrong all season and should take all the stopping as her master trainer bids for a record extending eighth Turf success. Two-time winner of this Rebel's Romance is expected to give his all to retain his crown, whilst Goliath shouldn't be too far away.

VerdictBidding to create his own bit of history with a third Turf success. Looks as good as ever at the age of 7 with 5 wins in 2025. His form stacks up and shouldn't be inconvenienced by the inside gate. Leading player. - 2. GoliathJ: Mickael BarzalonaT: Francis - Henri Graffard

VerdictFound win streak come to an end on sixth start in Group 1 Irish St Leger at the Curragh in September. Progressive on the figures and, though this is a deeper spot, is worth his chance in this field.

VerdictA winner over jumps earlier in the year before landing a pair of valuable handicaps back on the Flat. Not one to completely discount, but this is a much deeper race than he's contested before and the draw has done him no favours.

VerdictLooks to repeat from his Grade 3 Nashville Derby heroics at Kentucky Downs last out. Has found this level beyond him previously and may be in for more of the same.

VerdictJust lasted out from the front to win the Grade 1 Canadian International at Woodbine in track record time last out. This is much deeper and he's unlikely to find things in his favour here.

VerdictSeemed rejuvenated after a British Group 2 success and then the Grade 1 Sword Dancer at Saratoga in the summer. Proved no match for entrymate Rebel's Romance last out. His very best still leaves him short of his fellow European challengers.

VerdictHas a decent strike-rate but has come up short in this class before and this is tougher. Likes to go forward and will be aiming to hold off the closers in the stretch.

VerdictVersatile home runner who's winless since 2023, though was just denied by Silawi in the Grade 1 Canadian International at Woodbine last out. Hard to see him playing a part even with a repeat on the figures.

VerdictHaving a fourth attempt at the Turf after a pair of fourth-placed finishes the last 2 years. Comes here on the back of dual Grade 2 successes. A repeat of recent year's finishes probably as much as he can hope for.
