Delphi (10/11), Search For A Song (13/8), Master Of Reality (7/2), Monument Valley (4/1), Micro Manage (5/1), Sea The Lion (25/1), Broad Street (40/1), Maria Christina (66/1), Aircraft Carrier (150/1), Giuseppe Garibaldi (150/1)
Aidan O'Brien has won this Group 3 for the last six years so his upwardly mobile DELPHI is hard to side against, especially as he promises to be well served by the step up in trip as he goes in search of a fourth straight win. Last year's Irish St Leger heroine Search For A Song will doubtless present a stern test, while lightly-raced Micro Manage shouldn't be underestimated either.
