Mountain Fox (5/1), Pillmakers Hill (11/2), Wilderness (6/1), Everyhouronthehour (15/2), Tio Esteban (8/1), Vita Veritas (9/1), Noble Intention (11/1), Hidden Spark (11/1), Throwaway Line (12/1), Ocean Air (12/1), Wedding Photo (14/1), Lizard Point (14/1), Polly Glide (16/1), Santorini Sun (16/1), King Christophe (20/1), Chico One (50/1), Vivalicious (66/1), Seenit Doneit Next (66/1)
A weak contest where the suggestion is WILDERNESS, who can hopefully be galvanised sufficiently by the application of headgear to defy a 3lb rise on her reappearance. King Cristophe is not ruled out, while Lizard Point won when fresh last year so is another to consider. Vita Veritas and Chico One are others for whom some sort of case could be made.

- King Christophe
