Que Amoro (3/1), Equilateral (10/3), Major Jumbo (9/2), Moss Gill (6/1), El Astronaute (7/1), Al Raya (9/1), Alpha Delphini (12/1), Tarboosh (40/1), Aberama Gold (80/1)
One who should not be discounted as the outsider of the field is Aberama Gold who returns to the scene he was victorious at when last running in this grade. He has had excuses tackling competitive group contests since so can be forgiven those efforts. Major Jumbo has been placed in a pair of Group Three races this season and should represent himself well on that evidence while El Astronaute is fancied to confirm the form of his recent meeting at Doncaster with Tarboosh despite giving that rival 3lb this time. They all have to beat QUE AMORO though who is an improving filly and looks a typical sort her trainer can make up into a Group One performer in time.
