Hello George (5/2), Western Climate (5/1), Justification (11/2), Oscarteea (6/1), Willow's Saviour (9/1), Spice Fair (10/1), Royal Guardsman (14/1), Agincourt Reef (20/1), Shanty Town (25/1), Grape Tree Flame (33/1)

WESTERN CLIMATE may be too well-handicapped for the rest of this field considering the form of his latest win has been franked in emphatic fashion by the runner-up since. Justification is another who could potentially be ahead of his mark and the yard are in flying form while Royal Guardsman has some useful course form and ought to give a good account.
