2026 Brigadier Gerard Stakes Entries
Ombudsman will make his reappearance at Sandown for the second season in a row. John and Thady Gosden's star was beaten in this race by Almaqam, before going on to land the Prince Of Wales's Stakes, the Juddmonte International and the Dubai Turf.
Gethin looks set for a season at the top table, following an emphatic Listed win on his return to the track at Kempton in April. Almeric claimed Listed honours at Newmarket last season, but could only finish third as Saddadd won the Gordon Richards Stakes on his 2026 return.
With William Buick riding Ombudsman for Godolphin, Ryan Moore has been booked to partner with Arabian Light. Charlie Appleby's star is yet to make the breakthrough at pattern level, with both of his most recent wins coming in handicaps at Meydan.
Connor Planas partners with Charlie Appleby's second-string, Bedouin Prince. The sixth and final runner is James Owen's Wimbledon Hawkeye, who claimed Group Three honours out in America last season.
