Verdict

America has won this eleven times and are well represented here with top-rating going to MYSTIC GUIDE after a demolition job in a Grade 3 handicap at Oaklawn having ended the last campaign beaten narrowly in the Grade 1 Jockey Club Gold Cup at Belmont. Owned by Godolphin, he can continue the USA's dominance of the event. His compatriot Jesus' Team, second in the Breeders' Cup Dirt Mile, occupied the same position in another Grade 1 at Gulfstream last time when Sleepy Eyes Todd was well beaten. Frankie's mount Great Scot bids to become the first Saudi-trained winner at the meeting and the former Tom Dascombe-trained Group 3 winner was staying on over 1m1f in the Saudi Cup. Andre Fabre doesn't send horses here without chances though Magny Cours has never raced at this sort of level but Salute The Soldier has improved for a step-up in trip as he showed when making all in a Group 1 three weeks ago.
