Broadway Belle (11/2), Topham Bay (6/1), Letemgo (7/1), Poetic Presence (7/1), Ange Des Malberaux (7/1), Minella Suite (7/1), The Delray Munky (10/1), Massini's Lady (14/1), Turtle Cask (16/1), Son Of Feyan (16/1), Rory's Valentine (22/1), Herecomesnelson (28/1), Nicki's Nipper (28/1), Beyondtheflame (150/1)

A race that appears unlikely to live long in the memory and with so many in the field who consistently find winning beyond them, the suggestion is ANGE DES MALBERAUX, who has won over 3m, on soft ground and is on a very competitive mark. The Delray Munky enters calculations and Minella Suite could also finish among the prizes. Nicki's Nipper could pose a threat, though conditions are a concern, while Topham Bay merits a market check.
