Opening Bid (7/2), Groom De Cotte (4/1), Storm Hill (5/1), Bahtiyar (15/2), Will Sting (9/1), John Betjeman (10/1), Big Boy Bobby (11/1), Iontach Cheval (12/1), Krokmou (16/1), Olympic Conqueror (16/1), Jaramillo (20/1), Laura Bullion (22/1), Moorland Rambler (40/1)

A wide-open handicap in which the market should prove a useful guide but STORM HILL goes handicapping off a potentially lenient mark based on the form of his victory at Plumpton earlier this year and, with Brian Hughes a very eye-catching booking, he gets the vote. Last year's winner Opening Bid arrives on the back of a sound second over C&D and is feared, along with Iontach Cheval and Will Sting.
