Orgetorix (6/4), Deputy (7/2), Vitruve (4/1), Najeeba (7/1), Oz Legend (17/2), Qaasid (11/1), Zhang Fei (28/1), Eagle One (50/1), Camelot Star (50/1), Barenboim (80/1), Capaldi (250/1), Telefina (250/1), Run Red Run (250/1)

ORGETORIX improved from his debut to score at York a month ago, doing well under the circumstances having been caught in trouble while the runner-up went for home. He's taken to follow up and make it 2-3 with the promise of better to come. Vitruve produced a promising first effort under a considerate ride at Newbury and can chase the selection home, ahead of Deputy and Najeeba.
