Victory Echo (11/8), First Class Return (3/1), Zoffalee (7/2), D'jango (4/1), Coup De Pinceau (4/1)

VICTORY ECHO has developed a good partnership with Conor Rabbitt in the saddle, making it 2 wins from his last 4 starts when successful at Perth a fortnight ago, and he is taken to add to his tally in his current form. Coup de Pinceau ran better than for a while when runner-up last time and could be the main danger, ahead of First Class Return.
