Kipling (7/4), Al Suhail (10/3), Tsar (13/2), Al Madhar (8/1), Mass Media (9/1), First Receiver (14/1), Celtic Art (20/1), Eshaasy (22/1), Dulas (33/1), Tammani (33/1), Wild Hero (33/1), Stepney Causeway (50/1), Anglo Saxson (50/1), Union Spirit (66/1)

A red-hot maiden that could be worth following throughout the rest of the season but the tentative selection is AL SUHAIL who is a full-brother to this year's Dante winner Telecaster. His trainer does particularly well with his juveniles at this venue and he cost a small fortune as a yearling. There are no shortage of dangers in opposition, most notably Kipling who boasts a beautiful pedigree and has the benefit of experience. Trainer John Gosden has a strong hand in this and Eshaasy makes most appeal from his trio.
