Muffins For Tea (7/2), Jepeck (7/2), Theatrical Star (4/1), It's Obvious (5/1), Crown Hill (6/1), Cap Horner (9/1), Invicta Lake (10/1), Court Frontier (11/1)
Although he has reached the veteran stage, Theatrical Star showed last time that he retains enough ability to be a factor. He is much respected, along with top-weight Court Frontier and Muffins For Tea and It's Obvious, who are closely matched on recent course form. Despite having stamina to prove, Cap Horner can get involved, but the one they all have to beat may be CROWN HILL, who has proved a model of consistency over fences and comes into this race on the back of a fine effort at Doncaster.
- Crown Hill
- Theatrical Star
