SWORD OF WESSEX left his debut behind when runner-up in a warm Sandown maiden and this Derby entrant tops the shortlist. Anzac Day looked potentially smart when winning a Newmarket maiden as a 2-y-o but he's been off the track since. Ernst Blofeld made a promising debut here 2 weeks ago so is another to consider with well-bred newcomer Modern Style completing the shortlist.
