The Mediterranean (10/3), Lord Of The Manor (10/3), King Of The Castle (7/2), Egyptian Rock (4/1), Mitigated Risk (10/1), Ruling (12/1), Hathlool (18/1), Shinsengumi (22/1), Global Export (28/1), Celestial Horizon (33/1), Citronnade (50/1), Global Welfare (50/1), Seattle Creek (80/1), Wild Dollar (80/1), Killaloan (80/1), Parliament Hill (100/1), Ney (250/1), Vodka Warlord (300/1), Gonna Go Viral (400/1)

THE MEDITERRANEAN, who is in the Derby, is the mount of Ryan Moore from the Aidan O'Brien three and is taken to leave last autumn's debut behind and make a winning return. His stablemate Lord Of The Manor is another who could step up considerably on his sole outing at 2 so he's feared most ahead of Egyptian Rock.
