Flymetothestars (5/4), Endless Acres (5/2), Gavlar (5/1), Champagne Champ (8/1), Isharah (10/1), Mijhaar (10/1), Red Rannagh (12/1), Excellent Result (20/1), Zakatal (25/1), Uncle Bernie (40/1)
A thoroughly competitive handicap for the stayers which might provide some tentative early clues for the Northumberland Plate and Vase next month. Gavlar, Isharah and Zakatal are course regulars who have done their connections proud, but face tricky tasks from elevated marks. Uncle Bernie found a bucket-load of improvement when making a striking impression last month at Pontefract, whilst Excellent Result would comfortably have beaten these rivals in his Flat pomp for Saeed Bin Suroor. However the wait for FLYMETOTHESTARS has been longer than anticipated, but this lightly raced course winner steps up to 2m for the first time, with the sky promising to be the limit for him over staying trips this year. This race will surely bring him on with regards future targets, but he still rates as the selection nevertheless.
