Gambie Tiep (2/5), Rock On Harry (13/2), Turpin Gold (7/1), Urabamba (16/1), Rafiki (16/1), Glimpse Of Gold (16/1), Ten Ten Twenty (18/1), Let It Shine (40/1), Beautiful Surprise (80/1), Emanate (100/1)

While it's likely that GAMBIE TIEP's best days ahead will be over fences, he is nevertheless hard to oppose here on the back of his recent dominant, all-the-way success in this sphere at Perth. The 7-y-o will be competing off an 8 lb higher mark in the future, so it's no surprise that connections are looking to strike while the iron is hot. Turpin Gold and Rock On Harry can fill the places.
