Wells De Lune (8/11), Numbercruncher (7/2), Velvet Maker (4/1), Brave Jaq (10/1), Starkie (10/1), Le Bacardy (22/1), Next Surprise (25/1), Noble Friend (33/1), Exclusive Rights (50/1), Jamrham (50/1)
Only a handful make any appeal in the finale, and NUMBERCRUNCHER, who likes decent ground and this sort of trip, can get the better of Starkie, back to form last time and another for whom this trip is ideal. Exclusive Rights simply doesn't get much further than this and so it's easy to forgive may of her recnet efforts. She could reward each-way support. Wells De Lune and Velvet Maker would hold chances if coming back to form, but that's far from a given.
