A traditional trial for the Derby in which John Gosden has a fine recent record having sent Golden Horn here on his way to Derby glory in 2015. His two runners this year both arrive with obvious claims and it's ROARING LION who makes most appeal. He disappointed in the Craven but bounced back with a fine effort when racing alone on the stands-side rail in the 2,000 Guineas and provided he stays this trip, he's the one to beat. Stablemate Crossed Baton is respected after his Derby Trial success at Epsom. Wells Farhh Go appreciates cut in the ground but isn't out of this if handling conditions while Merlin Magic and Nordic Lights both have each-way claims at likely bigger prices.
- Roaring Lion
- Wells Farhh Go
