Verdict

KING OF THE CASTLE is the sole newcomer in the field but this brother to Derby winner Serpentine is fancied to make a winning start for the in-form Aidan O'Brien team. McPherson rates the biggest threat on the back of his promising debut fourth at the Curragh, although the selection's stable companion Roman Empire could also have a say on his return from a break.

  2. MCPHERSON
