A wide-open renewal with plenty of progressive and unexposed colts but MILITARY ORDER's win at Lingfield was the most convincing of all the trials, so this brother to 2021 Derby winner Adayar has plenty going for him with his stamina guaranteed. Passenger arguably would have won the Dante at York (on only his second career start) had he not been forced to wait for a gap so he is high on the shortlist along with Chester Vase winner Arrest, who should continue to improve.

  1. MILITARY ORDER (IRE)
  2. PASSENGER (USA)
  3. ARREST (IRE)
