Robero (7/2), Bamber Bridge (9/2), Tavener (5/1), Avon Breeze (11/2), Magical Effect (13/2), Cool Bahamian (7/1), Russian Realm (10/1), God Willing (11/1), Tigerwolf (12/1), Courier (20/1), Mishaal (25/1)

COOL BAHAMIAN is ideally suited to a strong gallop and a stiff finish. With both guaranteed here he merits the selection, particularly as he has won on the last two occasions he has dropped to a mark below 83. Avon Breeze and Russian Realm will appreciate the pace too, but Robero looks the chief threat with his in form rider engaged. Bamber Bridge won first time out last season and is worth watching in the market on his return here.
