Vinndication (10/3), Jerrysback (6/1), Johnbb (13/2), Sojourn (15/2), Larry (9/1), Checkitout (11/1), One More Fleurie (12/1), Regal Encore (14/1), Glen Forsa (14/1), Mister Malarky (20/1), Didero Vallis (25/1), Bennys King (25/1), Real Steel (28/1), Captain Chaos (40/1)

A decisive winner of this in 2019, VINNDICATION is taken to maintain his 100% record here. Kim Bailey's charge is 7 lb higher this time round, but he's still on a fair mark judged on his reappearance second in the Charlie Hall last term and his record when fresh augurs well. Johnbb is unexposed as a stayer and may emerge as the main danger ahead of Jerrysback and last year's winner Regal Encore.
