A Plus Tard (11/10), Bristol De Mai (11/4), Next Destination (5/1), Royale Pagaille (13/2), Waiting Patiently (15/2), Imperial Aura (12/1), Chatham Street Lad (28/1), Clondaw Castle (33/1)

A PLUS TARD holds a clear edge on form and is fancied to become the first Irish-trained victor of this Grade 1 and thwart Bristol de Mai's bid for a record-equalling fourth success. Nigel Twiston-Davies has his string in great nick though, so his course specialist seems sure to push Henry de Bromhead's Gold Cup runner-up close. Next Destination and Imperial Aura look the pick of the rest.
