Captain Dion (11/8), Dark Side Dream (9/2), Buccaneers Vault (6/1), Pearl Spectre (13/2), Merdon Castle (7/1), Salvatore Fury (16/1), Luis Vaz De Torres (20/1)

A reasonable contest despite the small field, and whilst front running is difficult to master at this track, Kevin Stott rides Newcastle better than most, so it's worth chancing CAPTAIN DION can find that shade extra from this higher mark in the first time visor and record another success. Luiz Vaz De Torres will be sharper for a recent comeback run, whilst Dark Side Dream is ultra consistent and Merdon Castle is becoming increasingly well handicapped. 1. Captain Dion 2.
