Aesop's Fables (8/13), Marbaan (7/1), Al Riffa (9/1), Proud And Regal (9/1), Hans Andersen (9/1), Shartash (14/1)

AESOP'S FABLES looked a colt really going places when taking the Futurity Stakes over C&D and can maintain his unbeaten record at the chief expense of sole English challenger Marbaan, who shouldn't be taken lightly in his bid to complete a four-timer on the back of his Vintage Stakes success. Shartash can take another step forward now he steps up to 7f and is firmly in the mix too.
