Ocean Runner (1/1), Matloob (9/2), Boneless (5/1), Kingswood Flyer (12/1), Chapman (14/1), How's The Guvnor (16/1), Vice Captain (16/1), Zabriskie Point (18/1), Parker's Piece (22/1), Gushing Gold (28/1), La Habanera (50/1)

A hot race on paper, interesting newcomers taking on a trio who've already shown promise. OCEAN RUNNER cost 625,000 gns earlier this year and showed potential when odds on at Ascot on debut 17 days ago. He's the most likely winner, though Matloob, whilst not actually achieving much, really caught the eye on debut, and Boneless and Kingswood Flyer are both newcomers to note.
