Rayif looks the value bet when it comes to the Queen Elizabeth II Stakes. The horse was sent off at odds of 53/10 to win the Aga Khan Studs Prix Jacques le Marois. The victory by a neck came after a midfield finish at Deauville. That was preceded by a May success at Longchamp, with the 11/2 poke able to get up by a length on very soft ground.
Talk Of New York has secured a number of big wins this season, with Charlie Appleby saddling a horse that won at Newmarket at the end of September. The odds-on favourite made no mistake in the Joel Stakes, with that coming after being surprisingly beaten in the Thoroughbred Stakes at Goodwood. Back in May, there was a victory in the Heron Stakes at Sandown.
Constitution River opened the campaign with three straight wins and Aidan O’Brien will be hoping for a return to victorious ways. However, successive third-placed efforts have tempered expectations, with the horse proving underwhelming at York before the same thing happened at Leopardstown. Only third was managed in the Irish Champion Stakes.
Zavateri comes into this race off the back of a victory, with Eve Johnson Houghton saddling the charge to success at Goodwood. At the end of August, the horse won the Celebration Mile Stakes on soft ground, fending off the field by three and a half lengths. That came after a credible fifth-placed effort in the City of York Stakes.
