Almaqam (5/2), At Vimeiro (3/1), So Deuce (9/2), English Harbour (7/1), Lord Of Love (15/2), Retracement (12/1), Campaign Medal (16/1), Legend Of Kings (25/1), Secret Beach (66/1), Mini Punter (100/1), Jonathan's Lady (300/1)

AT VIMEIRO clearly didn't give his running in a novice at Newmarket on his final 2-y-o start but he ran to a useful level when beaten 4 lengths in the Royal Lodge there prior to that and a reproduction of that form would make him hard to beat. Derby-entrant Almaqam finished in front of the selection when an eye-catching fourth in a Newmarket novice so is next best ahead of the Gosden pair Lord of Love and Campaign Medal.
