VERDICT: Bay Bridge was very impressive when seeing off 2021 Epsom Derby and King George hero Adayar in the Champion Stakes at Ascot, with the previously-unbeaten Baaeed only fourth. Sir Michael Stoute's five-year-old made a perfectly satisfactory reappearance when third in the Prix Ganay and looks the one to beat. Vadeni was a place behind him at Longchamp, but has been supplemented for this and took the Prix du Jockey Club and Eclipse last season before a cracking second in the Arc. Luxembourg had the French raider back in third when triumphant in the Irish Champion Stakes and will step forward from his comeback fifth in the Mooresbridge.
