Dr Zempf (13/8), Thunder Moon (3/1), Pretreville (4/1), Real Appeal (9/2), Straight Answer (8/1)

Verdict

DR ZEMPF scored comfortably in a Guineas trial over C&D on return and then seemed stretched by 1m next time, so he may well return to winning ways back in distance. The in-form Pretreville, who recently landed the Amethyst Stakes here, is a big threat, and the other trio can all have a case made for them.
