Where's Freddy (10/3), Ultramarine (9/2), Monsieur Kodi (6/1), Chola Empire (13/2), Justcallmepete (7/1), Nammos (15/2), Mr Baloo (10/1), Lord Rapscallion (11/1), Beauty Choice (16/1), Batal Zabeel (16/1), Supreme King (20/1), G'daay (33/1), One More Dream (40/1), Dion Baker (50/1), Desert Doctor (80/1)

ULTRAMARINE has been in top form under this rider and the complexion of this race looks ideal for his style, so he's preferred to Chola Empire, who arrives in good order and has an ideal draw. Monsieur Kodi is one of several others for whom a case can be made.
