Melfet (4/5), Poker Face (5/2), Alnilam (5/1), Topomania (9/1), Zarabanda (125/1), Capparis (200/1)
Plenty of promise on show but the vote goes to MELFET, who looked a useful prospect when defying a 9-month absence at Kempton a fortnight ago and John & Thady Gosden's colt looks destined for bigger and better things. He can get the better of Poker Face, who knew what was required to make a winning start at Pontefract earlier this month and looks sure to have more to offer. The returning Topomania completes the shortlist.
