This was run on Saturday 6th June 2026, on a very wet day with soft going. The winner, Christmas Day, a bay colt by Camelot out of Beauly, was owned by Magnier, Tabor, Brant, Westerberg and Smith,and trained by Aidan O'Brien. There were 13 runners, and the winner won by 2 3/4 lengths, with 2 1/2 lengths between second and third. The original favourite, Benvenuto Cellinin, was deemed a non-runner as it has its back leg on the starting stalls as the stalls opened, so a Rule 4 applied.
