The Scorpion gelding, FRED THE FOOT looks a typical improving sort with age from the sire and the six-year-old can further his reputation here following a win in a 16-runner handicap at Down Royal last month. Distance winner, Biddy The Boss, the solid and consistent, Double Windsor and last time out beaten favourite, Na Trachtalai Abu are more than capable of grabbing a place.
