Mirage Dancer (6/5), Second Step (7/2), Red Verdon (6/1), Eminent (6/1), Scotland (11/1), Blakeney Point (20/1), Top Tug (20/1)

Second Step should run well in his bid to improve on last year's second in this race, and he rates a danger to MIRAGE DANCER, who has also won over C&D, and looked better than ever when second in the Princess of Wales's Stakes at Newmarket. Red Verdon chased home Crystal Ocean in the Hardwicke, and would be a major player if that form is taken at face value.
