Braqueur D'Or (6/1), Belmount (7/1), Always On The Run (7/1), Ozzy Thomas (8/1), Forever Field (8/1), Bob Tucker (8/1), Super Scorpion (10/1), Cut The Corner (10/1), By The Boardwalk (10/1), Heist (14/1), Exxaro (14/1), Mont Royale (16/1), Vikekhal (33/1)

A tough race to call with plenty of exposed, though capable performers at this level and the suggestion is to go with top weight OZZY THOMAS. Admittedly, he does have to make some improvement to defy another 4lb rise, but he is in good form and is more likely than plenty of these to take another stride forward. Forever Field is respected on his handicap debut, while Braqueue D'or, Belmount, By The Boardwalk and Always On The Run are others to consider in an open contest.
