Newmarket Race 4 - Princess Of Wales's Stakes (Sponsored By The Kingdom Of Bahrain) (Group 2)

The globetrotting REBEL'S ROMANCE (1) should prove too good on home soil. Off since making it twenty one career wins in the February G2 Dubai City Of Gold Stakes at Meydan. Clear standout on form and should prove difficult to stop. CONVERGENT (4) can return to form after a poor effort in the G1 Coronation Cup when well beaten. Better judged on a previous 0.5L victory in the G3 John Porter Stakes at Newbury. Rates the main danger. TENABILITY (5) highlighted his talents gaining a neck victory in the Listed Tapster Stakes. Maintains good condition so don't rule out. ALMERIC (2) finished third in the G3 Brigadier Gerard Stakes missing by 3.25L. Up in trip now and has to be a contender.

Third-up today. Resumes off a 42 day letup. Resuming 3rd in a small field at Sandown Park in the G3 Gordon Richards Stakes on April 24 over 2000m, 7 len behind Saddadd with 58kg at $2.90. Second run from a spell 3rd in a small field at Sandown Park in the G3 Brigadier Gerard Stakes on May 28 over 2000m, 3.5 len behind Ombudsman carrying 58kg at $13. Looks a strong top-three prospect.

Previously second-up ran last in a small field at Goodwood in the G3 Glorious Stks on August 2 over 2400m, 25 len behind Al Aasy carrying 58.5kg at $3.30. Looks tested.
