Engines On (5/1), Ranko Express (6/1), Comfort Line (7/1), Rock Basher (8/1), So Messi (10/1), Init Together (11/1), Bright Dick (12/1), Hokusai (14/1), King Arthurs Sword (14/1), Harseva (14/1), Monzoon (14/1), Hurricane Helen (16/1), Barrys Rock (18/1), You Are The Deal (20/1), Thirtysecondstreet (25/1), Pegula (33/1), Initial Attempt (33/1), Hale Bopp (33/1), Bungle Inthedesert (33/1), My Kurkum (50/1), Attrazione (80/1), Golden Goose (100/1)

ENGINES ON has been knocking on the door at Gowran and might prove the answer to this big-field handicap with Billy Lee taking over the reins for the first time. The Ado McGuiness-trained Comfort Line has reached the frame in 2 similar races for C&D in recent weeks and can play a prominent role again. Ranko Express and the class-dropping Hokusai also make the shortlist.
