Coral-Eclipse: Runner-by-runner guide to Sandown Group One plus big-race verdict from Declan Rix

There is a six-runner field for the Coral-Eclipse at Sandown on Saturday. Richard Kingscote is not going to ride Bay Bridge. Ryan Moore is available to take the ride. The race starts at 3.35pm.

Coral Eclipse won the Tattersalls Gold Cup 41 days ago. He will need to improve on that effort to win at Sandown. He is a course and distance winner and has the ability to take advantage if others underperform.

Coral-Eclipse is a Group One race at Sandown. He won his debut in the Brigadier Gerard Stakes. Last year he was turned over at 10/11 in Prince Of Wales's Stake at Royal Ascot.

Lord North won the Dubai Turf this year. Prince Of Wales's form has declined since his 2020 Stakes victory. Lord North's rider forgot to remove his blindfold as the stalls opened.

Coral-Eclipse is a Group One race at Sandown. The horse on the market at 8/1 is not the same horse as before. He has had two poor runs since his last York victory. He is expected to get his favoured fast ground.

Charlie Appleby and William Buick are going to Sandown. Charlie Apple by won the Craven Stakes last year. William Buyick came second in the 2000 Guineas. Coral Eclipse is going for a Group One.

Christophe Soumillon won the Prix du Jockey Club by five lengths. Jean-Claude Rouget finished second. He's a good horse but his form is not impressive enough to warrant a place in the French Derby.

Coral-Eclipse is a Group One race at Sandown. Bay Bridge will win the race. Vadeni is 7/4. Mishriff is 8/1. Alenquer is strong and will make a test under Tom Marquand. Declan Rix gives his verdict. He thinks Mishra is overpriced. The horse finished third in the Eclipse last year.
