Daayeb (7/2), Sweet Justice (9/2), Philly's Hope (5/1), Divine Celt (6/1), Pixel Power (9/1), Kerry Blue (11/1), Lady Alcazar (12/1), Valquinto (16/1), Cap D'Antibes (20/1), Buachaill Or (25/1), Briseuse De Coeur (25/1), Dolce Sicily (33/1), Stellify (50/1), Kitten On The Keys (50/1), Adams Barbour (66/1), Deadwood (80/1)
Quite a few of these can be ruled out straight away, but not VALQUINTO who is less exposed than his main rivals and has improved since being sent handicapping. He took another step forward when third at Sligo & the step up to 7f for the first time could see him in an even better light. The consistent pairing of Sweet Justice & Lady Alcazar should be firmly on the scene again, though the latter has a small bit to prove after refusing to race on her first visit to this track last week. Another one who features on the shortlist is Daayeb who hasn't threatened in maiden company but should improve for the switch to handicaps given his attractive pedigree.

- Sweet Justice
