Overheer (7/2), Oneiroi (6/1), Razdan (6/1), Imposing Supreme (8/1), Harbanaker (9/1), Acquiescent (10/1), Dedillon (12/1), Longbourn (14/1), Everyhouronthehour (14/1), Texas Rock (14/1), Valhalla's Dream (14/1), Kosman (16/1), Swiss Army Officer (20/1), Airgead (25/1), Hot Voice (28/1), Nothingbuttrouble (33/1), Leabaland (33/1), High Altitude (50/1), Out On Friday (80/1), Day Dreamin' (80/1), Lily Like (100/1), Lady Savanah (100/1)

OVERHEER has been shaping up well in handicaps of late and the prospect of a well-run race kept to 1m will hopefully provide enough of a stamina test for him to gain a deserved success. Everyhouronthehour anf Oneiroi are just a couple of potential threats.
