Swissal (9/4), Bezos (11/4), Charles Fox (9/2), El Borracho (9/2), Dream Mount (6/1)

Verdict

A tricky race to close business with a case possible to be made for all. Bezos improved for an accidental change of tactics last time and a 9lb rise in the weights makes this harder. However, he is with a yard capable of getting more from him and has to be feared. El Borracho promises to add to his sole victory as he matures and Charles Fox is another with scope to improve now handicapping. Dream Mount has had excuses since his maiden victory and the likelihood of a good pace here will help him settle better. SWISSAL has been on a steady upward curve of late and has at least proven himself off his current mark. If he runs to his recent levels then it will take a career best from a rival to beat him.
