#	Horse	Jockey / Trainer	Wt	Gear	Form	OR	RPR	TS	Last	Crs	Dst	Val	Scr	EW	Odds
1 (6)	Amiloc Bay J:Rossa Ryan T:Ralph Beckett	J:Rossa Ryan T:Ralph Beckett	128	—	11-11	109	123	110	27d	—	—	-10	26.2	0.34/1	11/8 42%
Responded well for pressure in a commanding Listed win at Goodwood; leading form claims
11 (11)	Zahrann Bay J:Ben Coen T:J P Murtagh	J:Ben Coen T:J P Murtagh	128	—	211	105	116	77	15d	—	—	+17	40.1	0.69/1	11/4 27%
Listed winner at Leopardstown 15 days ago and he didn't look the finished article
10 (3)	Wimbledon Hawkeye Bay J:Silvestre De Sousa T:James Owen	J:Silvestre De Sousa T:James Owen	128	p	13-253	110	121	103	36d	—	—	+9	17.5	2.50/1	10/1 9%
Third in the Dante at York and every chance he'll stay this far; one to consider
6 (2)	Nightwalker Grey J:Colin Keane T:John & Thady Gosden	J:Colin Keane T:John & Thady Gosden	128	b	13-350	107	119	101	13d	—	—	+9	16.4	3.00/1	12/1 8%
Perhaps unsuited by Epsom in the Derby; his Dante fifth gave cause for optimism about 1m4f
4 (10)	Green Storm Bay J:Billy Loughnane T:Charlie Johnston	J:Billy Loughnane T:Charlie Johnston	128	—	122-47	107	118	93	13d	—	—	+9	16.2	3.00/1	12/1 8%
Respectable 7th in the Derby but just one win from his eight starts; vulnerable once more
7 (5)	Opportunity Bay J:James Doyle T:William Haggas	J:James Doyle T:William Haggas	128	—	4-14	95	111	95	27d	—	—	+6	13.2	3.50/1	14/1 7%
Line can be put through Goodwood last time (badly hampered); well bred; retains potential
9 (8)	Regal Ulixes Chestnut J:Oisin Murphy T:Andrew Balding	J:Oisin Murphy T:Andrew Balding	128	h	31-1	94	106	91	14d	—	—	+17	22.6	4.00/1	16/1 6%
2 novice wins from his 3 starts; classy pedigree, but needs sizeable step forward today
3 (4)	Galveston Bay J:Ryan Moore T:A P O'Brien	J:Ryan Moore T:A P O'Brien	128	b	71-71	96	108	81	41d	—	—	+8	12.9	4.50/1	18/1 5%
2-4; plenty to find now upped in grade and Moore rides Puppet Master, but 1m4f could suit
5 (1)	Minhad Bay J:Tom Marquand T:Ismail Mohammed	J:Tom Marquand T:Ismail Mohammed	128	—	351	83	94	78	34d	—	—	+18	20.2	20.00/1	80/1 1%
Narrow win in Newmarket novice on third start; he would be a surprise winner today
NR (9)	Convergent Bay J:NON-RUNNER T:K R Burke	J:NON-RUNNER T:K R Burke	128	—	1-13	104	118	-	44d	—	—	—	20.5	—	—
Third in Chester Vase and front two then filled same positions in the Derby; not ruled out
NR (7)	Puppet Master Grey J:Ryan Moore T:A P O'Brien	J:Ryan Moore T:A P O'Brien	128	—	214-41	105	122	105	41d	—	—	—	13.8	—	—
Won the Listed Lingfield Derby Trial and is in excellent hands to continue to progress
