Wonderful Charm (1/1), Al Co (9/4), Curraigflemens (7/1), Strollawaynow (7/1), Adrenalin Flight (16/1), Little Chip (40/1)

The question to ask as far as Wonderful Charm goes is what sort of form he in after a couple of moderate efforts by his own high standards. If he can bounce back to his best, he should take this, but that's not a given. With Curraigflemens to prove himself at the trip, it offers AL CO a great chance if he can cut the mistakes that sometimes hold him back. Strollawaynow will keep going when others have had enough and might squeak a place.
