Master Malcolm (3/1), Bitasweetsymphony (10/3), Keplerian (4/1), Zuckerberg (9/2), Uberman (11/2), Caro Des Flos (13/2), Alberic (17/2), Abaya Du Mathan (12/1), The Knot Is Tied (33/1)

Not so competitive as the numbers suggest and MASTER MALCOLM looks the way to go on the back of his good C&D second which looks strong form for the grade. Bitasweetsymphony appeals as the chief threat, especially if the fitting of blinkers ekes out a bit of improvement. Keplerian can't be ruled out too if building on his encouraging chasing debut fourth at Leicester.
