Harper Valley (2/1), Laser Focus (9/4), Knacker Trapper (7/2), Salsada (9/1), Finisk River (14/1), Punxsutawney Phil (18/1), Belvedere Blast (28/1), Nibiru (40/1), Fugitives Drift (125/1)
The vote goes to HARPER VALLEY, who landed this race last year and looks poised for a repeat following his recent near miss at Kelso. Knacker Trapper's turn also appears near judged on his solid placed efforts the last twice, while the hat-trick seeking Laser Focus has to be feared. Salsada is not the easiest to predict but she will have a serious chance if on-song.
