Veldskoen (15/8), Dance Variety (6/1), Transact (8/1), Usa's Hope (17/2), Michael Faraday (17/2), Kitchakal (9/1), Poltergeist (12/1), Swift Action (16/1), Ensuing (16/1), Quandary (16/1), Certainly (22/1), Bullitt (22/1), Act Naturally (25/1), Charlie Malone (28/1), Silver Salmon (40/1)

Verdict

SWIFT ACTION has marginally the best all-round profile but will need everything to fall right. Act Naturally makes most appeal of the remainder, while Veldskoen might well have a say too.
