Mathan (6/4), Alfred Tennyson (5/1), Ballintogher (6/1), Iceford (6/1), Chester Nimitz (8/1), Teffian Warrior (10/1), Ze Do Asfalto (10/1), Pedro Nunes (10/1), Passing Phase (11/1), Dmaniac (14/1), Glen To Glen (25/1), Pinmoney (33/1), Lady Mary Heath (80/1), Amavasya (100/1), Far Above Dream (200/1), Faye Presto (200/1)

An expensive purchase, MATHAN has shown plenty on the track having only been bettered by a useful-looking rival when runner-up on his second start, and he is taken to make a winning return. Alfred Tennyson has already shown a fair level of ability and may improve as a 3-y-o, as might Passing Phase following a gelding operation, while Chester Nimitz could be a different proposition returned to the turf.
