Snowy Winter (5/4), Kensington Star (3/1), Epitaph (5/1), Starplex (6/1), Storm King (16/1), Cosmelli (25/1), L'Inganno Felice (25/1), Galileo's Spear (33/1)
This is a really good race for this time of year and one where the topweights Snowy Winter and Storm King are the only ones proven on the surface. The former was impressive here last time and we have become accustomed to her excellent trainer's horses complete sequences of victories in handicaps. On this occasion it is questionable she can concede weight to KENSINGTON STAR. The five-year-old goes well fresh and appears to have found himself back on a workable mark having been hit hard for his consistency last summer. The yard's other runner Starplex has plausible claims and Galileo's Spear is an intriguing horse for his shrewd trainer to work with. Cosmelli may have been waiting for an opportunity to race on a slow surface and a drop to this distance. It would be no surprise to see him give a good account at generous odds.
- Kensington Star
