Canelo (13/8), French Crusader (11/4), Dynamite Dollars (7/2), Neachells Bridge (14/1), Oscar World (16/1), Rocco (20/1), Mystical Clouds (25/1), Rebel Royal (40/1), Ballasalla (50/1), Du Destin (50/1), Huntress (80/1), Doctor Thea (150/1)

With Dynamite Dollars vulnerable under his double penalty, this could rest between Canelo, who looks the best of his stable's two representatives, and FRENCH CRUSADER. The selection created a good impression when winning a bumper and was slightly disappointing on his hurdling debut, but this longer trip and better ground may see him in a better light. Neachells Bridge and Rebel Royal are worth keeping an eye on in the betting, while Oscar World looks the best of the three mares and should improve for this sounder surface.
