SO YOU Think will face only four rivals the Coral-Eclipse Stakes at Sandown but two of them, Workforce and Snow Fairy,are superstars.

British bookmakers immediately installed the Australian champion a 4-5 favourite to win his first Group One on English soil.

But this is a tougher race than the Prince of Wales's Stakes at Royal Ascot, where So You Think was poorly ridden and narrowly beaten by Rewilding.

Last season's Derby and Prix De L'Arc De Triomphe winner Workforce is second favourite at 2-1.

And Snow Fairy, who has won at Group One level in England, Ireland, Japan and Hong Kong, has been rated an 8-1 chance on her return to competition for the first time since December.

Seamus Heffernan takes over on So You Think from Ryan Moore, who chose to ride Workforce.

In a sure sign Workforce's trainer Sir Michael Stoute intends to make the 2000m at undulating Sandown even more testing, he has accepted with pacemaker Confront.
