Super Survivor (10/3), Gwennie May Star (4/1), Imperial Merlin (5/1), Ernest Gray (5/1), Gege Ville (7/1), Idem (7/1), Jalisco Star (8/1), Secret Trix (14/1), Saint Palais (18/1), Caughtinyourtrance (33/1)

A competitive finale and it could go the way of Alan King's ERNEST GRAY who arrives on the up and is taken to bag a third win of the season with the form of his recent Aintree victory having been well advertised since. Secret Trix should prove suited by this return to 3m and rates a big threat though, while Super Survivor, Idem and Gwennie May Star all need factoring in too. Imperial Merlin completes the shortlist.
