Above (4/1), Dark Kestrel (9/2), Frank The Spark (7/1), Darlo Pride (7/1), Ganesha (15/2), King's Crown (15/2), Filly One (17/2), Golden Rainbow (10/1), Fierce (14/1), Wrestling Revenue (33/1), South Shore (50/1)
The vote goes to ABOVE, who has been in good heart in recent months and, all things considered, he performed with credit over C&D last time. The 8-y-o remains on a workable mark and gets the nod ahead of another in-form candidate in the shape of King's Crown, while Darlo Pride has a realistic chance of reversing recent C&D placings with Ganesha and Frank The Spark.
