I'm A Starman (7/4), Tropical Speed (9/2), Gentleman Jacques (5/1), Shantou Express (11/2), Spitalfield (13/2), Sporty Jim (7/1), Faded Fantasy (7/1), Climate Precedent (25/1), Zacony Rebel (28/1), Captain's Pick (28/1), And Still I Rise (28/1)

There should be a fair pace for the typically smooth-travelling SPITALFIELD to aim at and he may be able to make a winning return under Richie McLernon, who so often excels on patiently ridden types. Tropical Speed is having only his fifth start for the excellent Olly Murphy yard and could yet have more to offer in first-time headgear. Despite a whopping rise from the handicapper, last time out winner Faded Fantasy should still be in the mix if in a similar mood.
