Last year`s Emirates World Series winner, Fantastic Light, spearheads a strong-looking quintet from the Godolphin stable at today`s forfeit entry stage for the Vodafone Coronation Cup.
The Group One contest, run on the first day of Epsom`s Derby meeting on June 8th, carries a total prize fund of stg£250,000.
Fantastic Light, who finished second to Daliapour in this contest 12 months ago, is joined by stablemates Give The Slip, Mutafaweq, Ekraar and Hatha Anna.
Aidan O`Brien has left Bach and Shoal Creek in the field, while Sir Michael Stoute, who has sent out the winner of this race three times in the last nine years, could be represented by Adilabad, Little Rock and star filly Petrushka, who is on her way back to fitness after an eleventh-hour injury setback ruled her out of the Dubai World Cup.
John Dunlop relies upon Millenary, an impressive winner of the Jockey Club Stakes on his only start this season, and multiple Group-race winner, Golden Snake.
Henry Cecil`s pair, Sandmason and Wellbeing, both beaten by Millenary in the Newmarket race, could renew rivalry.
