The 41-year-old former champion is on the crest of a wave following a superb success on Alexandrova in the Oaks, and is out to claim his fourth success in the world’s most famous Flat race since 1999.

Fallon had the choice of five mounts for the Coolmore operation, but has opted for Stan James 2000 Guineas eighth Horatio Nelson, who is a 4-1 chance with Coral.
