Seeanythingyoulike (7/2), Hollywood Ken (9/2), Bathiva (5/1), Desque De L'Isle (5/1), Peterborough (11/2), This Breac (6/1), Babytaggle (8/1), Metatrons Cube (33/1)

Jockey Bryony Frost landed a double at Southwell on Monday and can steer the nine-year-old THIS BREAC to victory here. The gelding can hold off the David Dennis-trained Bathiva and Arcano gelding Hollywood Ken who both race off similar marks in this contest. Seenanythingyoulike for trainer Jeremy Scott should not be underestimated on the balance of a couple of creditable efforts over the larger obstacles since January.
