Perfect Power (9/4), Naval Crown (4/1), Creative Force (9/2), Artorius (8/1), Flaming Rib (17/2), Alcohol Free (14/1), Romantic Proposal (16/1), Happy Romance (20/1), Double Or Bubble (28/1), Twilight Jet (28/1), King Hermes (33/1), Cadamosto (33/1), Blackrod (33/1), Emaraaty Ana (66/1)

PERFECT POWER was impressive in the Commonwealth Cup last time and, while this is an even more competitive Group 1 against his elders, he makes the most appeal with the potential for even better. Stablemates Naval Crown and Creative Force, who were split by a neck when filling the first two places in the Platinum Jubilee Stakes, are likely to be on the premises again and Artorius could get involved if they go too quick.
