Dawn Rising (11/8), Al Aasy (3/1), Al Dabaran (4/1), Miss Yoda (7/1), Sound Of Cannons (14/1), West End Girl (16/1), Summeronsevenhills (20/1), Damage Control (25/1)

Verdict

One or two of these look to be tilting at windmills with the likes of Damage Control, Sound Of Cannons and West End Girl all needing to make big strides to be competitive. There was talk of Al Aasy going for the Derby after his 10L demolition of an unexceptional bunch over 1m4f on the Rowley Mile but connections resisted the temptation and come here instead, he’ll have a major chance at this level for the first time. Al Dabaran, best of these on official ratings underwhelmed with his Ascot effort and its DAWN RISING who appeals the most. Still green last time when pummelling a subsequent winner by 12L he looks ready for this rise in class. Miss Yoda is also considered if over her Ascot flop.
  1. Dawn Rising
  2. Al Aasy
  3. Miss Yoda
