Forecasts

Benvenuto Cellini (3/1), Pierre Bonnard (7/2), Item (11/2), Christmas Day (7/1), James J Braddock (9/1), Bay Of Brilliance (9/1), Maltese Cross (12/1), Action (16/1), Ancient Egypt (28/1), Rebel Rocker (66/1), Balzac (66/1), Poker (80/1), Alderman (100/1), A Taste of Glory (100/1)

Easy Chester Vase winner BENVENUTO CELLINI can provide Aidan O'Brien with a fourth successive Derby and record-extending twelfth overall. Dante winner Item is one of the least inexperienced in the line-up having had only 3 runs but that makes his York performance all the more impressive and he can progress again and provide the chief threat ahead of Lingfield Derby Trial 1-2 Maltese Cross and Bay of Brilliance. The selection's stablemate Pierre Bonnard completes the shortlist.
