Scarboroughwarning (4/1), Intervention (5/1), Aberama Gold (5/1), Stanley Spencer (6/1), Noble Victory (15/2), Supreme King (12/1), Raffles Angel (12/1), The Thames Boatman (12/1), Chuti Manika (16/1), Eternal Sunshine (20/1), Coup De Force (20/1), Rebel Empire (20/1), Monsieur Kodi (40/1)

Verdict

There wasn't much between STANLEY SPENCER and Scarboroughwarning when they filled the places in the C&D handicap won by Crestofdistinction last month, and there probably won't be much in it this time either. Both have strong claims and marginal preference is for Stanley Spencer, who earns top marks for consistency. The Thames Boatman scores highly in that regard, too, and he shouldn't be far away, while likely pace angles Chuti Manika and Intervention are also fairly appealing.
