Showed some promise when ninth on debut at Nottingham a couple of weeks ago. Got tired in the closing stages so expected to be fitter today, but more needed.
Unraced colt by Derby winner Sir Percy. More than likely to be in need of the experience and stable not known for sending out debut juvenile winners.
Very well bred son of Oasis Dream. Dam full-sister to dual Derby hero Australia. Cost 210,0000 guineas at last year's October Sales and holds a Derby entry. Market should prove very informative.
Won at Leicester last month and looked set to score again off a 6lb higher mark when running out while leading inside the distance at Nottingham two weeks ago. Clearly has his quirks but should go well, although may find one or two too good.
31,000 guineas son of Champs Elysses, hails from leading yard but doesn't hold any fancy entries. Has to be respected, but jockey bookings hint he may be stable second-string.
Dam scored on the dirt in the US so no surprise to see this son of Nathaniel debuting on the A/W. Yard among the winners recently so looks one of the more likely outsiders.
Sir Percy colt representing top stable. Very green on debut at Leicester last month but did a little better at Kempton last time and has some ability. May need a little more time and improve next term.
Redoute's Choice filly who was clueless on debut but clearly learned plenty when much improved to finish runner-up at Kempton a fortnight ago. Going the right way and looks sure to be involved in the thick of the action
Not disgraced in midfield at Newbury last time having struggled to make an impression on racecourse bow. Heading in the right direction and wouldn't be a total surprise if she sneaked in the places.
Well bred daughter of the great Galileo cost 300,000 guineas as a yearling. No fancy entries ahead of this debut outing but could well be decent so certainly worth keeping a close eye on market signals.

Noble Expression (7/2), Briscola (7/2), Best Blue (4/1), Blacklooks (6/1), Nibras Galaxy (10/1), Balkhash (10/1), Msaikah (12/1), Maverick Officer (12/1), Hasanoanda (16/1), Kiss Me Daily (20/1), Beloved Knight (66/1)
BEST BLUE looks the part on paper, and while he makes his racecourse debut very late on in the term he could still be useful and this colt who is closely related to Australia might be worth chancing. Briscola is the form horse having stayed on nicely to be second last time in a similar event, while another newcomer, Msaikah, a daughter of Galileo, could potentially be decent and cost connections a pretty penny. The errant Blacklooks is the only pevious winner in the field but this looks a tougher call. Kiss Me Daily is an interesting outsider.
