Oasis Charm (4/1), Sharja Bridge (9/2), Tricorn (7/1), Brorocco (10/1), Third Time Lucky (11/1), Dommersen (11/1), Another Eclipse (12/1), Cote d'Azur (12/1), Spark Plug (14/1), Examiner (14/1), Banditry (20/1), Breden (20/1), Pactolus (20/1), Baydar (33/1), Battle Of Marathon (50/1), Trulee Scrumptious (100/1)

A highly competitive affair to open the card and it's TRICORN who gets the tentative vote having looked a smart prospect in the early stages of last season. Sharja Bridge is less exposed than many and is an obvious player if the colt handles the track. Handling the unique undulations will be no issue for Examiner who won here last time out, giving the impression the extra furlong he gets today could see him improve further.
