Clyne (9/4), Limited Reserve (9/2), Verni (7/1), El Terremoto (7/1), Value At Risk (7/1), Diamond Fort (7/1), Chti Balko (10/1), Man Of Plenty (28/1), Intense Tango (50/1)

Another tremendous race for punters to get stuck into and again cases can be made for several. Clyne is entitled to enter anyone's calculations given his record here and on this type of going, but the handicapper might just have the edge over him. Value At Risk is likely to be popular after finishing 1½L behind multiple Grade 1 winner Unowhatimeanharry at Aintree last time and although that may have flattered, he has to be taken very seriously. Last year's winner El Terremoto has a much stiffer task from today's mark, while Chti Balko and particularly Diamond Fort have potential for improvement and could both be very competitive. However, the suggestion is VERNI, who loves some cut, goes well when fresh and also has scope to climb further up the ratings.
