A Distant Place (8/15), The Plimsoll Line (9/4), Chanceux (8/1), Brandy Cove (22/1), Bilboa River (40/1), Light Of Athena (150/1), Towtheline (250/1)

Verdict

This represents a good opportunity for A DISTANT PLACE, who was clear of the rest when going close in a Leicester handicap on his latest start last December. The Plimsoll Line has the benefit of a recent run, having finished third on his debut in this sphere at Chepstow last month, and he will ensure that the selection doesn't have everything his own way. Brandy Cove is best of the rest.
