Mr Sundowner (5/1), Steccando (5/1), Shamar (6/1), Wotabreeze (7/1), Lopito de Vega (7/1), Correggio (8/1), Falcon's Fire (10/1), Midnight Warrior (10/1), Aqua Libre (14/1), Annoushka (16/1), Gold Merlion (16/1), Patent (18/1), Duke Of Sonning (25/1), Optima Petamus (28/1), Belle Peinture (100/1)

Just a modest handicap and although STECCANDO remains a maiden the form of his second last time out reads well in the light of the winner’s subsequent exploits. Wotabreeze should always be respected around here and Shamar looks the sort to travel strongly although his finishing effort can sometimes be questioned. Mr Sundowner has been in good form this year although the handicapper is now starting to tighten his grip and Midnight Warrior also enters the equation on some of his course form.
