Debece (5/2), Reilly's Minor (3/1), Bendomingo (6/1), Quarenta (7/1), Amron Kali (8/1), Hadfield (10/1), Western Sunrise (14/1), Leaderofthedance (25/1)

There was no fluke about REILLY'S MINOR effort last time and he should be able to remain competitive despite a rise in the weights. The Tim Vaughan yard have returned to form in recent weeks and Debece looks capable of bolstering that record. Quarenta also comes from a yard that have recently turned a corner and he would be of interest if he could return to the form of his bumper efforts. 1. Reilly's Minor 2. Debece 3. Quarenta
