David Wachman’s Bushranger will bid to add to his Group One tally in Friday’s Shadwell Middle Park Stakes at Newmarket.

The speedy juvenile landed the Prix Morny at Deauville on his latest start and will once again have the assistance of Johnny Murtagh in the saddle.

Brian Meehan’s Gallagher, second in France but subsequently beaten by Lord Shanakill in the Mill Reef Stakes, reopposes again and he is joined by stablemate Galpin Junior.

Huntdown, massively impressive when winning a Newbury maiden by seven lengths, will represent John Gosden and Frankie Dettori.

Marcus Tregoning’s Finjaan, a gutsy winner of the Molecomb Stakes at Goodwood, steps up to six furlongs for the first time while Richmond Stakes winner Prolific represents the red-hot Richard Hannon yard.

Peter Chapple-Hyam’s Sayif, placed on all four starts but still a maiden, Tom Dascombe’s July Stakes winner Classic Blade and Kevin Ryan’s Jobe complete the line-up.
