Hasthing (10/3), Victtorino (7/2), Snipe (13/2), Wiseguy (15/2), Terresita (9/1), Highstakesplayer (9/1), Threeunderthrufive (11/1), Annsam (11/1), Java Point (20/1), Goshen (22/1), Monte Igueldo (50/1)

Plenty are in with a shout but Venetia Williams' VICTTORINO is building up an impressive record round here so is fancied to make light of a 3 lb rise for his Silver Cup victory and bag a fourth C&D success. The upwardly-mobile Hasthing rates a big danger though in his hat-trick bid, while last year's winner Threeunderthrufive and resurgent Newbury runner-up Wiseguy can also have a say. Terresita completes the shortlist in this cracking handicap.
