Sir Benedict (9/4), Phoenix Star (4/1), Gherkin (9/2), Wiley Post (5/1), Russellinthebushes (6/1), Harb (11/1), The Daley Express (12/1), Nubough (14/1), Pop Dancer (16/1)

Cases can easily be made for the majority of these, but it's PHOENIX STAR who boasts the most compelling claims, despite arriving here on a 21-race losing run. The 6-y-o shared the spoils in a significantly stronger handicap than this over C&D last summer and his recent near miss at Newcastle suggested that he's ready strike. The consistent Sir Benedict is just about second choice ahead of the Tony Carroll-trained duo, Wiley Post and Pop Dancer.
