2025: RUMSTAR 5 9 8 Rob Hornby 11-2 (Jonathan Portman) 11 ran Blinkers worn first time by No 10 Tongue Strap worn by No 6, 10 Blinkers, Tongue Strap worn by No 5. Sheepskin Cheek Pieces worn by No 2. Stewards Note:
GETREADYTORUMBLE: Following its run on 16/6/2026 it was reported that the horse reared as the stalls opened.
LEOVANNI: Following its run on 20/6/2026 it was reported that the horse hung badly right-handed.
Probable S.P’s: 9-4 Asfoora (AUS), 10-3 Rumstar (GB), 7-2 Words of Truth (GB), 8-1 Shagraan (IRE), 14-1 Getreadytorumble (GB), 28-1 Luna A Inbhir Nis (GB), 40-1 Partisan Hero (IRE), Leovanni (IRE), Gold Digger (IRE), 66-1 Palmeira (GB)
With blinkers refitted and tongue strap added, ASFOORA took a step back in the right direction when not beaten far at Royal Ascot and she can build on that effort in this grade. The smart Australian mare is taken to get the better of Rumstar, who landed this race last year, while Words of Truth scored in good style over C&D on his latest outing.

Stewards Note:
RIVER KING: Following its run on 18/6/2026 it was reported that the horse hung right-handed.
SEA FORCE: Following its run on 14/5/2026 it was reported that the horse was unsuited by the going.
TRIBAL CHIEF: Following its run on 9/5/2026 it was reported that the horse was slowly away.
Probable S.P’s: 5-1 Beagle Bay (FR), 11-2 Indalo (IRE), 7-1 Tribal Chief (FR), 12-1 Sea Force (IRE), 14-1 Cerulean Bay (IRE), Classic (GB), 16-1 Ebt’s Guard (GB), City of Poets (IRE), 20-1 River King (IRE), 22-1 Liberty Lane (IRE), 25-1 Hard Endeavor (FR), 28-1 Ozat (FR), 33-1 Popmaster (IRE), Bourbon Blues (GB), 50-1 Mirsky (GB), 66-1 Excellent Believe (GB), 150-1 Balmacara (GB)
TRIBAL CHIEF has been third in a pair of top-end handicaps from the same mark this year and the way he kept on from further back than ideal in the Victoria Cup last time suggests he can win one whenthings fall right. Similarcomments applyto recent Royal Hunt Cupthird Indalo and he’s second choice ahead of Beagle Bay, who almost certainly has more to come on the back of last month’s C&D success. The reliable Ebt’s Guard and last year’s winner Classic are others likely to have a say.

Fewer than 3 runners: win bets only, no places offered
3 or 4 runners: all to win. Where a bookmaker wishes to depart from this default position he may offer place terms for 3 or 4 runners, this must be at 1/5 odds a place 1-2
5 to 7 runners (inclusive): 1/4 (one quarter) odds for finishing 1st or 2nd
8 or more runners: 1/5 odds for finishing 1st, 2nd or 3rd
Handicap races with 12 to 15 runners (inclusive): 1/4 odds for finishing 1st, 2nd or 3rd

Stewards Note:
SILENCIOSA: Following its run on 3/5/2026 it was reported that the horse was denied a clear run.

The unbeaten SECRET OF LIFE is fancied to make a successful step into listed company. Pacific Mission probably sets the standard on her juvenile form and her recent Epsom effort suggests that she retains all her ability, with Estissa completing the shortlist on her turf bow.

THE CORAL-ECLIPSE
RACE DESCRIPTION: The Group 1 Coral-Eclipse is one of the standout middledistance contests of the British Flat season, run over one mile and two furlong here. First staged in 1886 and named after the legendary Eclipse, it’s the first top-level race of the season where the classic generation takes on their elders, often producing a fascinating clash of age and form. The race has been sponsored by Coral since 1976 and attracts some of the most high profile horses in training. It’s roll of honour includes greats like Giant’s Causeway, Sea The Stars and Enable.

CONSTITUTION RIVER overcame adversity in the Prix du Jockey Club at Chantilly and is likely to be hard to beat in his bid to provide Aidan O’Brien and Ryan Moore with a fifth Eclipse since 2021. Gethin ran a stormerbehind recent Prince ofWales’s hero Ombudsman in the Brigadier Gerard over C&D at the end of May and can fill the forecast spot ahead of Hawk Mountain and A Boy Named Susie, who were both behind the selection in France.

POINT OF CONTACT faces a sterner assignment than for his breakthrough handicap victory at York 3 weeks ago, yet that is form to be positive about (backed up bythe timefigure) and, not yet fully exposed, Andrew Balding’s charge may be up to defying a 3lb higher mark again partnered by Ryan Moore. Spoken Truth continues to shape up well in defeat and he’s clearly on an exploitable mark. Stem, Cloth of Stars and last year’s winner Final Frontier also merit respect.
