Royal Prospect (6/4), Equiano Springs (9/2), Nick Vedder (11/2), Athollblair Boy (9/1), Katheefa (10/1), Tommy G (11/1), Global Tango (20/1), Valley of Fire (25/1), Discreet Hero (33/1), Highly Sprung (40/1)
There should be little between old rivals Equiano Springs and Nick Vedder and both warrant considerable respect, but this can go to top-weight ROYAL PROSPECT, who is bidding for a C&D hat-trick and remains feasibly weighted. Global Tango needs a check in the betting on his return from a long break.
