Persica
PERSICA arrives at the top of his game and is the one to beat, although it would be no surprise to see Al Zanati resume his progression and pose a big threat with the Charlie Appleby stable firing on all cylinders again. Silawi has plenty of class for this level and is next on the list.

Won the 2025 Diomed Stakes at Epsom and back to best when narrowly in this year's renewal of that race. Creditable 1¾ lengths second of 6 to Sallaal in listed race at Sandown (1¼m, good) 15 days ago.

Group 3 winner in France as a juvenile. Returned with a good second in Sandown Classic Trial and the yard was going through a quiet spell when only sixth in the Dante at York 3 weeks later. Freshened up since and taken to bounce back.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosYork1m 2f 56yGoodFlat6/8Sandown Park1m 1f 209yGoodFlat2/7Chantilly1m 208yStandardFlat1/6Newmarket (rowley)1mGood to Firm (Good in places)Flat2/7Newmarket (july)7fGood to Firm (Good in places)Flat1/9- 6(3)Oceans FourJ: Tom MarquandT: Brian Meehan12d1-74Age 311/211/25/1

Won a 1m Group 3 in France last September. Bounced back from a disappointing reappearance when length fourth of 10 to Generic in Hampton Court at Royal Ascot (1¼m, good to firm, 80/1) 30 days ago.

Smart effort to win handicap at Meydan (1¼m) in January and probably should have followed up in Group 3 there later that month. Resumed after 4 months off with a respectable fourth in the Brigadier Gerard at Sandown (1¼m, good) but well held in Wolferton at Royal Ascot since. Buick on Al Zanati.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosAscot1m 1f 212yGood to FirmFlat10/16Sandown Park1m 1f 209yGood (Good to Firm in places)Flat4/6Meydan1m 1f 207yGoodFlat2/7Meydan1m 1f 207yGoodFlat1/14Sandown Park1m 1f 209yGood to Firm (Firm in places)Flat5/8- 2(4)MidakJ: Rossa RyanT: Ian Williams104-694Age 420/120/122/1

Useful winner for Francis-Henri Graffard in France. Back to that level at the third time of asking for this yard when fourth of 6 in listed race at Goodwood (1½m, soft) 41 days ago but this demands more.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosGoodwood1m 3f 218ySoft (Good to Soft in places)Flat4/6Jebel Ali1m 1f 153yFastFlat9/11Meydan1m 209yGoodFlat6/6Chantilly1m 208ySoftFlat4/8Epsom Downs1m 4f 6yGood (Good to Soft in places)Flat10/18- Non-Runners

Developed into a smart performer last year, notably winning Grade 1 Canadian International. Matched that form when second in 9f Meydan Group 1 in January but below par in Saudi 3 weeks later. Freshened up since.
