Seniority (6/4), Star Of Southwold (15/8), Zwayyan (9/2), Love Dreams (16/1), Glory Awaits (20/1), Breden (20/1), Another Batt (25/1), Azzeccagarbugli (33/1), Salateen (33/1)
Hard not to make a reasonable case for any of these runners in what looks a cracking claiming handicap. A slight preference is given to STAR OF SOUTHWOLD who has been in excellent form this season and has responded to being dropped in trip of late. Last year's winner Zwayyan also comes into the race in good form and ran a smashing race when third recently at Ascot. Azzeccagarbugli may not immediately stand out as a winner but if he can put two poor recent runs behind him then he has every chance at the weights. Love Dreams steps up in trip here but is a tough sort who should go well from the front.
