Progressive form in maidens, without a win, prior to his huge run at 100-1 in the Derby at Epsom (1m4f, soft) in June when he came from towards rear to finish about 7l fifth of 14 to Christmas Day; kept on well at the finish that day, as if a longer trip would suit, but he reportedly got "a little bit jarred up" on good to firm when last of five trying 1m5f in Group 3 at Newmarket in July; might have a place squeak with today's ground likely to be more suitable again.

A promising, scopey sort from a famous middle-distance family; progressive form in maidens, without a win, prior to his huge run at 100-1 in the Derby at Epsom (1m4f, soft) nearly five weeks ago when he came from towards rear to finish about 7l fifth of 14; kept on well at the finish, as if this longer trip will suit; faces very different ground today (he's unraced on firmer than good) but he's a big player if that is not a problem.

Travelled well and challenged from the rear at Newbury (1m3f, good; 17-2) on reappearance seven weeks ago, sticking to his task manfully too while chasing home an exciting prospect at a respectful distance; a promising, scopey sort from a famous middle-distance family but his progressive form in maidens, without a win, does not make him a serious Derby contender.

Off the mark at the fifth attempt in fairly valuable Sandown maiden (1m2f, good; first-time cheekpieces) in June and it was an improved effort when nutted on the line on his handicap debut at Newbury (1m3f, good to firm; front pair well clear) the following month; similar form in a French Listed race (1m4f) three weeks ago and this revised mark will demand a wee bit extra.

J: Oisin Murphy

T: Andrew Balding

Didn't look straightforward when the race got serious on last two outings but he was nevertheless better at keeping a straight line when cheekpieces were enlisted for six-runner maiden at Sandown (1m2f, good) last time and stuck his neck out well to win by 1l; some improvement is probably needed going handicapping but he has to be considered seriously in this small field.

T: Andrew Balding

Comes with some risk having looked far from straightforward under pressure at Newmarket last time, albeit was perhaps partly unsuited by the track and either way may be aided by first-time headgear today; has shown consistent promise otherwise and holds particularly strong claims on penultimate effort, namely third in above-average maiden at Newbury (1m2f, good) that has worked out well.

550,000gns yearling; promising placed efforts in two of his first three starts and he made the breakthrough with an easy win in Hamilton maiden (1m3f, good to soft) in June; that was a golden opportunity but he's still unexposed and needs a close look now upped to 1m6f on his handicap debut.

550,000gns yearling; steady improvement; beaten just over 7l (fourth) by the exciting Water To Wine on seasonal reappearance at Newbury (1m3f, good), before finishing third in a hot maiden at Chester's May Festival (12.5f maiden); gelded since and this looks the perfect opportunity to strike.

Sea The Stars colt who cost 550,000gns as a yearling; Dante and Derby entries have gone but he's still in the Irish Derby; that's after his fourth of eight in a strong-looking maiden at Newbury (1m3f, good; 4-1) three weeks ago on second start, in which he saw it out 4l better than Eben Al Khawaneej; major contender, type to improve with his racing.
