Darling Maltaix (9/4), Jacbequick (3/1), Court Royale (6/1), Soulsaver (7/1), Serveontime (8/1), Bodes Well (8/1), Here's Herbie (8/1), High Command (14/1), Hazamar (33/1), Picture Painter (33/1), Candyman Can (40/1), Maraakib (40/1), Cool Macavity (66/1)

This looks wide open. Court Royale and Jacbequick both hold good chances on current form but neither might want a lot of rain, which could compromise their chances. Similar comments apply to Picture Painter and Darling Maltaix will hold a better chance if he settles, but that's not a guarantee. A small e/w bet on SERVEONTIME is the suggestion, as despite not having won a race to date, he has shown ability and handles the track. He may improve for Bryony Frost taking over the reins, too.
