Sandown Park Race 5 - Star Sports Brigadier Gerard Stakes (Group 3)

OMBUDSMAN (1) is yet to win at this venue in two attempts however that could change here. This John and Thady Gosden G1 Prince of Wales and G1 Dubai Turf winner looked as good as ever in Meydan sixty one days ago and can take this en-route to defending his Royal Ascot crown. GETHIN (5) is a new purchase of Wathnan Racing and looked high-class when landing the Listed Magnolia Stakes at Kempton in April. It remains to be seen the limits of his ability and may give the main selection most to think about. ALMERIC (2) rates next on the shortlist after his third-place finish in the course and distance G3 Gordon Richards Stakes. WIMBLEDON HAWKEYE (6) might be in the mix.

Second-up. Comes off a 61-day let-up. First-up after five months favourite; won by 2 len at Meydan G1 Dubai Turf March 28 over 1800m defeating Quddwah with 57kg at $1.40. Previously second-up favourite; won by 2 len at Ascot G1 Prince Of Wales's Stakes June 18 over 2000m defeating Anmaat carrying 58kg at $8. Looks hard to beat again in this easier level.

Back from a long spell. Only had one start last campaign 12th of 14 at Del Mar Turf in the G1 Breeders' Cup Turf on November 1 over 2414m, 15 len behind Ethical Diamond carrying 55.5kg at $28.60. First up last campaign made some head-way from midfield; 2nd of 9 at Newmarket (Rowley) in the G3 Craven Stakes on April 16 2025 over 1600m, 3.5 len behind Field Of Gold with 58kg at $4.50. Looks a strong top-three prospect.
