The Shandyman (2/1), Port Ferdinand (9/4), Bamako Beach (13/2), Cape Primrose (8/1), Kactus Jack (9/1), Eniac (10/1), Breaking Dawn (16/1), Sindagan (20/1), Gatlinburg (28/1), Itsgettinhotinhere (33/1), Back To Me (40/1), Loch Gamhna (50/1), Jolly Jack (50/1), African Affair (100/1), Storm Petrel (125/1), Jampa Ling (125/1), Courtlough Gula (200/1)

The betting is sure to provide more clues in this newcomers race. The fact PORT FERDINAND is entered in the Group 2 Beresford suggests he must have been giving the right signals at Ballydoyle so he's the suggestion. Cape Primrose is another likely type for the same yard, while Jessica Harrington has won this 4 times since 2019 so Kactus Jack also has to enter calculations.
