Kenneth (11/8), Opportunity (3/1), Furthur (7/2), Ivatt (4/1), Gold Cup Day (6/1), Whatcombe (15/2), Al Wasl Storm (17/2), Bryant (10/1), Schemaya (18/1)
Often one of the best middle-distance maidens of the spring and a number of these hold Derby entries, including OPPORTUNITY, who is the type to improve markedly on his promising start at Nottingham in the autumn. He gets the vote over Ivatt, who tanked through the race when second at Newmarket first time up and looks a smart prospect. Furthur has more to come for Andrew Balding, while the superbly-bred Kenneth should uphold family tradition and be quickly winning races.
