Los Angeles (9/4), Kalpana (5/2), White Birch (3/1), Ghostwriter (13/2), Anmaat (8/1), Royal Rhyme (20/1), Continuous (50/1), Deepone (80/1), Crypto Force (300/1)

Aidan O'Brien's Irish Derby hero LOS ANGELES made a very pleasing return when edging out White Birch in the Mooresbridge Stakes here and can build on that to again thwart John Murphy's multiple C&D scorer who rates a big threat. Last year's Champion Stakes hero Anmaat can't be discounted either, while the smart pair Ghostwriter and Kalpana also need factoring into this cracking renewal of the Tattersalls Gold Cup.
