Darius Des Bois (4/1), Strong Pursuit (6/1), Achille (13/2), Salmanazar (15/2), Scotchtown (8/1), Mendip Express (8/1), Thedrinkymeister (10/1), Duel At Dawn (12/1), Kansas City Chief (14/1), Two Smokin Barrels (14/1), Holbrook Park (14/1), Bramble Brook (16/1)

DARIUS DES BOIS looked to be crying out for a step up in trip latest when second here over 2m4f and he is expected to be much better now over 3m and therefore gets the nod. Thedrinkymeister is one of the principle dangers after a good second on reappearance with recent winner Achille another expected to go close.
