Knightsbridge is respected after another impressive Grade 3 win, but his unproven stamina over 1m2f is a nagging concern. One option is Navajo Warrior who is in fine heart, but we don't know if he has the class, and the same doubt applies to Japanese challenger Finger. Full Serrano (second choice) could go one better than in the 2024 renewal and give his trainer a fifth Pacific Classic win, but there is so much other pace to combat for the 2024 Breeders' Cup Dirt Mile winner here. HIT SHOW is irresistible, given he is a strong stayer who should have so many tired horses to cut down late on. This race has a similar make-up to his 2025 Dubai World Cup win and he looks to be coming to the boil. [James Willoughby]
