Cresthill (10/3), Community Rebel (9/2), Benefit Ben (5/1), Reflection Of You (6/1), Fiveafterfour (7/1), Wearelongterm (10/1), Dr Shirocco (10/1), Uptown Harry (11/1), Marty Mcfly (12/1), Halfway House Lad (12/1), Cowboy Cooper (18/1), Blazing Court (25/1), Great Raffles (33/1)
If CRESTHILL is over Friday's Sedgefield exertions he might prove the answer to this staying handicap. Market confidence behind returning chase newcomer Fiveafterfour would make her a potential big threat. Her stablemate Reflection of You is also likely to be on the premises if her jumping holds up. Wearelongterm is another likely to have a say.
