Clonakilty (15/8), Thor De Cerisy (5/2), Royal Mer (5/1), Johnny Jump Up (6/1), Pilsdon Pen (7/1), Eximia (22/1)

In a contest where most have a question to answer the most solid option is THOR DE CERISY, who was second over C&D last month and followed that with a decent run in a warm race at Windsor. Royal Mer showed better signs last time and is handicapped to go well if building on that, while last year's winner Clonakilty could also have a say if reacting well to wind surgery and a change of headgear.
