Khage (4/5), Jimmy The Digger (9/4), Oleg (7/2), Pond Road (16/1), Elton Des Mottes (25/1), Biscay Bay (33/1), Caviciana (33/1), Havana River (50/1), Crown Of Roses (50/1), Beau Haze (66/1), Nordenfelt (125/1), Joey Steel (150/1), Beecher (150/1)

KHAGE and Oleg should dominate these despite their winner's penalties. The latter could do no more than dispose of his moderate rivals at Kelso with apparent ease. He faces a sterner examination today as the selection dominated his rivals over C&D last time. The runner-up, Antunes, had run well in a handicap on his previous start and there is every chance that KHAGE is a lot better than his official rating of 134.
