W G Grace (2/1), Laura Knight (5/1), Raven's Raft (6/1), Vegas Boy (8/1), Silver Bullet (8/1), Gold Eagle (8/1), Jan's Joy (12/1), Grand Acclaim (12/1), Red For Danger (20/1), Jean Paget (25/1), Rue Cambon (40/1), Dark Hedges (100/1)

Plenty of guesswork with a whole host of contenders making their handicap debuts. Top weight Raven's Raft and Golden Eagle are interesting, while W G Grace might be an improver over this trip for his powerful yard. Jan's Joy is another to catch the eye, but the choice is SILVER BULLET, who hails from a yard which does well in this type of contest and could be about to show improvement in a first-time visor.
