Derby hero Australia and Hardwicke Stakes winner Telescope are eyecatching names to feature amongst 37 entries for the Juddmonte International at York on August 20.

Australia is one of a clutch of possibles for Aidan O'Brien, with Ruler Of The World, Magician, Leading Light, Verrazano and Kingsbarns among his older challengers.

O'Brien's three-year-old legion also features Royal Ascot winner Bracelet and Geoffrey Chaucer.

Telescope demolished his rivals in Berkshire, beating fellow Sir Michael Stoute inmate Hillstar in the process, and that pair are both entered for the 10-furlong feature, which is worth a record £800,000 this term.

Stoute has another interesting string to his bow in Arab Spring, who triumphed at handicap level at Ascot.

Noble Mission could try to emulate his brother, Frankel, who won the race in 2012, while Richard Hannon has entered Night Of Thunder and Shifting Power.

Al Kazeem, third in the race last year and only recently back in training with Roger Charlton, is also in contention .

Derby second Kingston Hill, Prince of Wales's Stakes winner The Fugue and French Derby scorer The Grey Gatsby are also possible runners.
