Gallantly (5/4), Chicago Critic (9/4), Chemistry (8/1), Fine Print (17/2), Salah Al Deen (12/1), Heliogabalus (14/1), Best Law (20/1), Total Look (25/1), Sound Move (33/1), Dont Do Dramas (50/1), Granite Bay (50/1), Private Officer (100/1), Fearless Tom (100/1)

GALLANTLY failed to meet expectations when finishing down the field on debut here last month, but given the weight of support for Aidan O'Brien's colt that day, he's worth another chance now stepped up to 1m. Chicago Critic was a few places ahead of the selection in third that day and he may emerge as the main danger, with Chemistry and Best Law another couple fancied to be involved.
