Yosemite Valley (1/3), Pop Star (10/3), Rathbranchurch (7/1), Keke (16/1), Tortured Soul (40/1), Calamint (80/1), Santa Fe (100/1), Tarfeh (200/1), Grey Daze (250/1)

YOSEMITE VALLEY hasn't been seen since finishing runner-up to Little Big Bear in the Anglesey Stakes at the Curragh 13 months ago and if anywhere near that level on return, Donnacha O'Brien's colt is likely to take some stopping. He can get the better of Pop Star, who took a step forward from his debut but is also returning from a lengthy absence. Rathbranchurch and the once-raced Keke can do battle for third spot.
