Always On The Run (2/1), Play The Ace (9/4), Shady Glen (6/1), Surf And Turf (7/1), Mont Royale (12/1), Vikekhal (14/1), Mercers Court (16/1)

Stratford brings a little extra out of PLAY THE ACE and he is fancied to confirm recent form with both Vikekhal and Mount Royale, who spearhead the challenges from the rest. Top weight may anchor Always On The Run but he is another that act well on the track and can go close if his stamina holds out.
