Easy Chester Vase winner BENVENUTO CELLINI can provide Aidan O'Brien with a fourth successive Derby and record-extending twelfth overall. Dante winner Item is one of the least inexperienced in the line-up having had only 3 runs but that makes his York performance all the more impressive and he can progress again and provide the chief threat ahead of Lingfield Derby Trial 1-2 Maltese Cross and Bay of Brilliance. The selection's stablemate Pierre Bonnard completes the shortlist.

Timeform Comments

Action (IRE)
Second (Benvenuto Cellini third) in the Futurity at Doncaster (1m, heavy) on final 2-y-o start. Bounced back from an underwhelming reappearance when 2¾ lengths second of 8 to Item in Dante at York (10.3f, good) 23 days ago. Likely to stay 1½m. Wears first-time cheekpieces.
Alderman
Progressive form but no match for the highly promising Water To Wine in 11f Newbury maiden on reappearance. Likely capable of even better but he'll need to find a huge chunk of improvement to get competitive here.
Ancient Egypt (IRE)
Bombed out behind Bow Echo in Royal Lodge at Newmarket on final 2-y-o start but resumed his progression with a smart, strong-galloping effort to win 1¼m listed race back at Newmarket on reappearance. Raced only on good/good to firm. Capable of better again with the step up to 1½m likely to suit.
A Taste Of Glory (GER)
Well beaten behind Pierre Bonnard in French Group 1 on final 2-y-o start. Returned to win handicap at Lingfield (1¼m, all-weather) in March but failed to cope with a step back up in class when remote last of 6 to Maltese Cross in the Derby Trial on turf there (11.6f, good) 4 weeks ago.
Balzac (GER)
Useful but limitations seemingly exposed when third in Blue Riband here and Derby Trial at Lingfield (beaten 6¾ lengths by Maltese Cross) in recent months.
Bay Of Brilliance
Looked a smart stayer in the making when easily defying a penalty in 9f Redcar novice (good to soft) last autumn and confirmed those impressions when going down by only a neck to Maltese Cross in Derby Trial at Lingfield (11.6f, good to firm) on reappearance. Likely to progress again.
Benvenuto Cellini (IRE)
Impressive 5-length winner of Group 2 at Leopardstown last September. Had stablemate Action ahead of him when third in Futurity on heavy ground at Doncaster on final 2-y-o start but back to looking a top prospect when easily winning Chester Vase (12.3f, good to firm) on reappearance. Leading claims.
Christmas Day (IRE)
Took his form to another level when landing the Ballysax at Leopardstown (1¼m, soft) on reappearance. No more than a respectable 4½ lengths third of 8 to Item in Dante at York (10.3f, good) since but remains open to further progress with 1½m in mind.
Item
Frankel colt who maintained his unbeaten record with a defeat of Action and Christmas Day in Dante at York (10.3f, good) on reappearance, seeing out the longer trip well and leaving the impression 1½m will be within range. Likely to have a big say.
James J Braddock
Big-field Curragh maiden winner last autumn. Only fifth to Christmas Day in the Ballysax at Leopardstown on reappearance but left that behind to edge out Pierre Bonnard and win the Derby Trial there (1¼m, good) 27 days ago. Will relish 1½m.
Maltese Cross (FR)
Son of Sea The Stars who has won all 3 starts since his debut, progressing again to see off Bay of Brilliance by a neck in the Derby Trial at Lingfield (11.6f, good to firm) 28 days ago. Will go on improving and can make his presence felt.
Pierre Bonnard (IRE)
Group 1 winner on soft as a 2-y-o. Disappointed in the Ballysax on return but got his career back on track when narrowly denied by James J Braddock in Derby Trial at Leopardstown (1¼m, good) 27 days ago. Should stay 1½m and remains open to improvement.
Poker (IRE)
4,300,000 gns Wootton Bassett colt was beaten 8½ lengths into second by Bay of Brilliance in 9f Redcar novice last autumn. Advanced his form with cheekpieces added (retained) when second in another novice at Haydock (1½m, good to firm) on return 42 days ago but this is a huge jump in class.
Rebel Rocker
Made a winning start in 1m Kempton maiden last November. Left that bare form behind when 2½ lengths second of 6 to Saxon Street in listed race at this course (1¼m, good) on return in April but another jolt of improvement will be needed to get competitive here.
