Morning With Ivan (11/2), Character Onesie (11/2), Kelpies Myth (6/1), Jamacho (13/2), Kalaniti (7/1), Scorpion Princess (8/1), Ninepointsixthree (10/1), Starplex (12/1), Titus Bolt (14/1), Silver Bullion (14/1), Graystown (16/1), Vino's Choice (16/1), The Grinder (25/1), Anguino (50/1)

A trappy contest which may go to CHARACTER ONESIE, who is one of several runners who makes his handicap debut. He ran his best race so far less time and it is interesting his top jockey keeps the ride. Graystown and Kalaniti enter calculations despite their big weights, while at the other end of the handicap, Jamacho is interesting for his shrewd stable. Morning With Ivan, Kelpies Myth, The Grinder and Ninepointsixthree are others to consider, while Scorpion Princess has prospects on one piece of Ludlow form.
