Nearly always one of the strongest 3-y-o handicaps of the season. DESERT HERO is in the Derby and gets the vote to take his record to 3-4 on his reappearance. Irish-raider Bertinelli is another low-mileage colt with plenty of potential and heads the dangers along with easy Newmarket handicap winner Royal Rhyme. The other Sheikh Mohammed Obaid runner Exoplanet chased home Lingfield Derby Trial winner Military Order on his C&D return and can also figure if stall 16 isn't too troublesome.
