If The Grey Gatsby can land Sunday's Tattersalls Gold Cup at The Curragh, he will become a warm favourite for the Prince Of Wales's Stakes on June 17. Al Kazeem runs, but his main rival Free Eagle has suffered a minor setback and misses the race.
In Paris, Solow will have to contend with old warrior Cirrus Des Aigles in the Prix d'Ispahan at Longchamp, but the Freddy Head-trained grey was so impressive in Dubai that it will be a major blow if he does not go close again.
While in Australia, with the emphasis now on Queensland, a capacity field of 16 will face the starter in the G1 Doomben 10,000 in Brisbane.
Godolphin are represented by Knoydart (drawn 15) and Generalife (6). Knoydart ran with great promise last start and is knocking on the door.
