Alberic (3/1), Jakamani (5/1), Druim Samhraidh (6/1), Jesuitique (7/1), Admiral Balko (7/1), Samtara (15/2), Colden's Dream (9/1), Always Resolute (11/1), Shaw's Cross (25/1), On The Meter (33/1)
An interesting race and preference is for COLDEN'S DREAM, who is well worth another chance to progress now making an early switch to handicaps. Admiral Balko is only 4 lb higher than when winning at Wincanton in March and remains unexposed, while Alberic is another who should continue to progress this season having joined a top yard.
