Paco Boy, with Richard Hughes on board, is the hot favourite for the Lockinge Stakes at Newbury on Saturday.
Richard Hannon's horse was fourth in the race last year but he put that performance down to an infected foot.
He bounced back to win the Queen Anne Stakes at Royal Ascot and earlier this year won a mile race at Sandown.
The biggest challenge is expected to come from Zacinto, who is being saddled by Sir Michael Stoute, who has won the race seven times.
Lord Shanakill is having his first run for Henry Cecil, having previously been trained by Karl Burke, Alan Jarvis and American Richard Mandella.
Kevin Ryan is also saddling Pipedreamer for the first time, after he left John Gosden's yard.
The line-up is completed by Ouqba, The Cheka, Prince Of Dance, Stimulation and Kargali, who has travelled over from Ireland.
