Wilde Blue Yonder (11/4), Whatmore (3/1), Present Ranger (3/1), Mister Fizz (9/1), Secret Legacy (12/1), Dashing Oscar (12/1), Ballyhill (16/1), Shalakar (20/1), Silva Eclipse (25/1), Steel Wave (33/1), Card Game (66/1)

Mister Fizz and Card Game have had good summers but are fully weighted as a result. Shalakar and Silva Eclipse should be winning races this term but both are likely to need this. Last year's winner Dashing Oscar has an excellent record here but his latest run makes him hard to recommend. As a result the vote goes to another course winner, WHATMORE, who ran well in the Silver Trophy having made much of the running. If building on that in a weaker race then he looks the obvious one to beat.
