Sir Busker (4/1), Eligible (4/1), Spirit Of May (9/2), Sassoon (9/2), City Wanderer (5/1), Balata Bay (11/2), Conspiritor (11/2), Island Glen (16/1), Sense of Belonging (20/1), Bring Us Paradise (22/1)

An open finale, with the vote going to SPIRIT OF MAY. He halted a thriving rival on the AW at Chelmsford on his comeback to shed the maiden tag and has since finished a very credible second at Salisbury with a couple of subsequent winners behind. He's nudged up in the ratings again, but looks likely to make more progress. Sir Busker is eased in grade here and looks the principle danger, while Island Glen and Eligible are also noteworthy runners.
