Fred Bear (7/4), Red Derek (3/1), Tribuna Uffizi (3/1), Harry The Norseman (5/1), Oi The Clubb Oi's (7/1), Denable (15/2), Tinchoo (8/1), Flying Standard (8/1), Scudamore (16/1), Seaborough (33/1)

TRIBUNA UFFIZI arrives at the top of his game and is fancied to make light of a 5 lb penalty on the back of his cosy Bath success and bag win number three of the season. Yarmouth-second Harry The Norseman rates the chief threat, with Red Derek another weighted to have a say in an open handicap.
