Diego Velazquez (15/8), School Of Law (5/2), Portland (5/2), Huxley (7/2), Instant Appeal (7/2), Meriwether Lewis (11/2), Islandsinthestream (9/1), Chicago Fireball (11/1), Chandigah (28/1), Glengarriff (66/1), Capall Donn (100/1)

DIEGO VELAZQUEZ fetched a mouth-watering 2,400,000 gns as a yearling and, seemingly the choice of Ryan Moore, he's selected to make a winning start before the benefit of market clues. Instant Appeal showed fairly useful form first time up when second at Leopardstown last month, so he's put forward as the main threat, ahead of the selection's stablemate Portland.
