Methusalar (11/4), Fathers Advice (4/1), Robins Field (9/2), Augharue (9/2), Contre Ordre (5/1), Sword Of Fate (11/2), Libby (7/1), Guillaume (8/1), Melvich Bay (10/1), Grand Soufle (10/1), Gouet Des Bruyeres (20/1), Barley Breeze (28/1)

SWORD OF FATE is handicapped to win and, having bounced back to form at Perth last time, he's fancied to add another C&D success to his record. Augharue is a danger if in the same form as last time and Grand Soufle is an interesting chasing debutant for a trainer that does well at his local track.
