Pithivier (7/4), Cabragh (11/4), Saroque (11/2), Copper Birch (8/1), The Horsechesnut (10/1), Western Jo (12/1), Cafe De Paris (25/1)

Verdict

Saroque looks certain to be suited by dropping in grade, but whether three miles at this track will be enough of a test is open to discussion. Copper Birch may well have won his races for now, but equally may not have been suited last time for being turned out so quickly. CABRAGH promises to be suited by stepping back up in trip, and may be able to dominate from the front. Time may tell that he faced a stiff task against a most progressive rival last time at Newcastle, and by Old Vic, he appears to boast stamina in abundance. 1. Cabragh 2. Saroque 3. Copper Birch
