Picture Of A City (15/8), Sixpack (7/2), Amusement (4/1), Teutates (4/1), Dubawi Spectre (5/1), Autocrat (11/2), Lasting Peace (8/1), Water Nymph (12/1), Rauzan (12/1)

Johnny Murtagh has his team in good form so perhaps SIXPACK can strike on handicap debut after catching the eye a bit last time. Dubawi Spectre's last 2 efforts show he can be very competitive from his mark, while Picture of A City is a possible improver for the Andrew Oliver team now making a quick switch to handicaps.
