Magic Journey (11/4), Yes You (3/1), Size Matters (7/2), Free To Roam (9/2), Jessie Allan (12/1), Peny Arcade (12/1), Kensington Palace (14/1), Secret City (16/1), Kafoo (20/1), Lady Molly (28/1), Spirit Be With You (40/1), New Decade (50/1)

This is nowhere near as strong as the second division of this 7f handicap with only a few that look in any sort of form or capable of any progression. YES YOU certainly falls into that category and with the Jardine yard having a fine season she may well be able to complete the hat-trick having only been given small weight rises for her last two wins. Magic Journey appears to be suited by this C&D and he looks to be the one to provide the main danger with Kensington Palace likely to appreciate underfoot conditions more this time. Kafoo can’t be ruled out for a trainer who does well with new recruits although Size Matters may struggle to get involved in this over a trip that looks too short for him.
