Gustav Klimt is one of four potential runners for Aidan O'Brien in the Qatar Lennox Stakes at Goodwood on Tuesday.

The Galileo colt has finished second in the Irish 2,000 Guineas, second in the St James’s Palace Stakes at Royal Ascot and third in the Prix Jean Prat at Deauville on his three most recent starts and could bid to provide his trainer with a first victory in this seven-furlong Group Two.

The Ballydoyle handler has also confirmed Intelligence Cross, Spirit Of Valor and Fleet Review.

Tip Two Win is set to run in the Lennox after connections virtually ruled out adding him to the Sussex Stakes at Thursday’s supplementary stage.

The grey was an excellent second behind O’Brien’s Saxon Warrior in the 2000 Guineas before placing fourth in the St James’s Palace.

Trainer Roger Teal said: "I think we’re going to stick to the Lennox now. I’m 95 per cent sure were going for that.

"He’s in good form and great order. I’m very pleased with him."

Karar, trained in France by Francis-Henri Graffard, was supplemented for the Lennox at the confirmation stage, taking the list of possibles to 20.

The last two winners of the race, Dutch Connection (2016) and Breton Rock (2017) stood their ground.

Others in the mix include last year’s Sussex Stakes hero Here Comes When, D’Bai, Emmaus, Suedois, Sir Dancealot and Threading.

The most notable absentee was Expert Eye, who is likely to be re-routed to the Sussex Stakes for which he will have to be supplemented.
