West Cork (5/2), Onemorefortheroad (4/1), Anna Bunina (6/1), Barrichello (6/1), Milkwood (13/2), Alqamar (11/1), Socialist Agenda (12/1), Voix Du Reve (16/1), Kihavah (25/1)

Having finished runner-up to Milkwood from 5 lb higher in this race a year ago, ANNA BUNINA's claims from a handicapping perspective are pretty compelling with a back-to-form third at Musselburgh last month strengthening her case. West Cork and Onemorefortheroad have already shone in good-quality handicaps this term and head the opposition.
