Cosmos Raj (11/4), Cusack (10/3), Finn Russell (9/2), Sandret (5/1), Rocket Rod (12/1), Struck Gold (12/1), Surprise Picture (14/1), Showmedemoney (16/1), Lady Mojito (20/1)
Plenty of in-form sorts in opposition but SANDRET did well under the circumstances and dropped the hint his turn is imminent when finishing a good second in a C&D handicap in October and he shades the vote. Rocket Rod returned to this venue, Cusack and the hat-trick seeking Struck Gold head the dangers.
