Esoterique and Integral will clash again in the Group 1 Kingdom of Bahrain Sun Chariot Stakes this weekend at Newmarket, after 9 runners were declared.

The pair battled in the one-mile contest last year, where Sir Michael Stoute’s mare came out on top.

However, this year, the five-year-old’s form has been below par. Main rivals Esoterique, Bawina and Irish Rookie will be hoping to take advantage on the Rowley Mile this Saturday.

Kingdom of Bahrain Sun Chariot Stakes entries:

Bawina, Esoterique, Integral, Fadhayyil, Irish Rookie, Maimara, Malabar, Raydara and Realtra.
