FormscanBy Tom Weekes - CHURCHILL is a proven top class performer and can win having run very well on his first try at 1m2f at York latest. He swiftly moved through the gears in Listed, Group 3, 2 and 1 company as a juvenile and then proved his worth when winning the English and Irish 2,000 Guineas. He has never won on the bridle and would be ideally suited by reasonably good ground but is nonetheless a very reliable performer (apart from one below par run in June) and there was certainly no disgrace in his defeat in the Juddmonte at York latest. This is another proper Group 1 contest but probably not as strong as York, when beaten by Ulysses and finishing ahead of Barney Roy. Eminent won very well at Deauville last month and is a danger, being an improved performer. The favourite for that Deauville race (Brametot) disappointed and while the rest of that form is nothing special, Eminent did win very easily and seems to have improved following his fifth placing (with form tying in with Ulysses and Barney Roy) in the Coral-Eclipse in July. Poet’s Word has shown vast improvement through his career and while a Group 3 winner at Goodwood latest on soft ground, this represents another big step up in class. Zhukova is a proven soft ground performer and while also very capable on her day, might struggle to win today while Cliffs Of Moher made the pace in the Juddmonte latest and while also a very good horse in his own right, might also struggle today. Success Days is also much better on soft ground and while he is unlikely to win, could have place claims were the ground to become testing. Moonlight Magic won at Group 3 level latest but needs to improve to win today. Famous 2014 winner The Grey Gatsby hasn’t shown his old spark in recent times while Taj Mahal’s only win came in a Dundalk handicap last year and while another smart type, should struggle to win although he could make the pace.
