Glimpse Of Gold (2/1), Edward Elgar (9/2), Gin And Tonic (9/2), Deise Diamond (6/1), Caprice D'anglais (12/1), Alyasan (12/1), The Otmoor Poet (14/1), Magical Thomas (16/1), Bulletproof (20/1), Methag (33/1), Musical Moon (50/1)

This represents a slight ease in grade for THE OTMOOR POET and he is fancied to take advantage of the opportunity presented to him. Glimpse Of Gold is fairly treated and will be a threat if he acts on the ground, while Gin And Tonic, who won this race last year, is also on a handy mark and has place claims at least. Edward Elgar is another that likes this particular course and is worth bearing in mind if the market shines a positive light on his claims.
