William Of York (7/2), Kankin (7/2), Benefact (9/2), Forget The Way (11/2), Merveillo (13/2), Talimar Pearl (8/1), Hitthekettle (20/1), Nordy Lordy (28/1), Emberscombe (33/1), Of Corse I Can (40/1), Mistertommyshelby (40/1)
The vote goes to KANKIN, who did well under the circumstances when third in a C&D maiden recently and he can be expected to take a step forward now pitched into a handicap for the first time. The hat-trick seeking William of York and Forget The Way, who shapes as though this stiffer test will be in his favour, rate the main dangers. Merveillo would be threat if able to get back on track but it's a significant 'if'.
