Chemistry (8/13), Bloom Vega (6/1), Kaptain Bay (13/2), Model Approach (8/1), Quilieve (8/1), Valjean (12/1), Maharajjah (14/1), Noble Nation (22/1), Glowing Bird (50/1), Northern Sonas (80/1), Sheen Falls Time (80/1), King Of The Bronx (200/1), Thefutureisnow (250/1)

CHEMISTRY showed plenty to work on over an inadequate trip on debut at Naas 6 months ago and could be much improved on return, so he's preferred to Bloom Vega, who is the clear pick of the newcomers. Model Approach is also expected to step forward over this longer distance, so he's another one to consider.
