VERDICT: Kyprios sets out on the road back to the Ascot Gold Cup and even though Aidan O'Brien is sure to have left plenty to work on, he has enough in hand of these rivals to get back to winning ways. Unbeaten in six starts in 2022, including a four-timer at Group 1 level, the Galileo entire missed most of last season having picked up a serious joint infection. He wasn't quite at his best when second in the Irish St Leger and Long Distance Cup at Ascot in the autumn, but still ran to a high level of form. Yashin, who carries a 3lb penalty for his win in the Saval Beg at Leopardstown last May where Dawn Rising was back in third, was well behind the selection in the Irish St Leger when last seen. Queen Alexandra winner Dawn Rising finished a place ahead of Yashin in the final Irish Classic of 2023, but is held by Kyprios on that form. 2022 Cesarewitch winner Run For Oscar was third to Dawn Rising at Royal Ascot before running creditably in France a couple of times. He would prefer a longer trip.
