The Manuscript (5/2), Definately Vinnie (3/1), Tanrudy (4/1), Phoenix Rock (11/2), An Laoch (8/1), Lucky Jim (10/1), Belmont Park (14/1)

In such a weak contest recent C&D second DEFINATELY VINNIE looks to have a sound chance to land his first chase win if he can repeat the effort. The Manuscript would be the selection but for his last race, a pretty woeful effort. He could bounce back however. Belmont Park is mostly consistent at this sort of level and could have a say too.
