Old Persian (8/11), Knight To Behold (5/2), Gronkowski (11/4), Wilfred Owen (8/1), Balletomane (14/1), Hazarfan (16/1), Cristal Spirit (16/1), Courtside (20/1), Arthenia (40/1), Echo Cove (50/1)

There was plenty to like about KNIGHT TO BEHOLD's debut at Newbury last month and that run sets a solid standard for the rest to aim at. Gronkowski is beautifully bred and should improve from his debut run while Old Persian improved to win on his second start and is likely to give another good account.
