Kudbegood (4/1), Matilda With Me (9/2), Gregory's Gift (6/1), Fall For A Kiss (6/1), Cliffs Of Freedom (7/1), Giorni Felice (15/2), Tyrion's Dream (10/1), Max's Dandy (11/1), Musalsal (11/1), Strategic Fortune (12/1), Sahreej (18/1), Shatharaat (28/1), Just Brilliant (40/1), Kefallonia (40/1), Nakakande (40/1), Night Law (40/1), Adams Barbour (66/1), Rudisha (66/1), Du Maurier (80/1)
This lacks depth and could go the way of Matilda With Me, who is relatively unexposed and has been shaping up well since switched to handicaps. Kudbegood, who's been runner-up the last twice, could pose the main threat ahead of Gregory's Gift.
