Acapulco Bay (2/11), Genealogy (13/2), Emit (15/2), Brandon Creek (18/1), Deetee (40/1), Mocking (40/1), Ice Jet (50/1), Mythical Reel (66/1), Nakatomi (80/1), Sir Jeremy (150/1), Expert Analysis (200/1), Hes Bullet Proof (300/1)

ACAPULCO BAY was a big eyecatcher on debut here 3 weeks ago and could be hard to beat with improvement on the cards up in trip. This is usually a good maiden and one dominated by Aidan O'Brien, so stablemate Genealogy is an obvious contender. Brandon Creek is another newcomer to note.
