Okita Soushi (4/5), Sandhurst (3/1), Shoshone Warrior (7/2), Shanroe (6/1), Takarengo (14/1), True Destiny (80/1), Benkei (125/1), Shamad (150/1)

OKITA SOUSHI posted a very useful effort when third in the Copper Horse Handicap at Royal Ascot and is confidently expected to resume winning ways here. Sandhurst has his first run for Jessica Harrington after a long absence but this former Chester Vase runner-up still warrants lots of respect, while Shoshone Warrior is another who needs considering after a lay-off.
