Marmelo (11/8), Weekender (2/1), Time To Study (8/1), Melodic Motion (10/1), Duke Of Bronte (14/1), Duretto (18/1), Clever Cookie (28/1), Algometer (33/1)

MARMELO and Weekender are the two prime contenders on form and official ratings. The former is preferred purely on the forecast for rain on Saturday which would remove the biggest doubt about him. Time To Study has each-way claims back at this trip and Melodic Motion is feared in receipt of the fillies allowance should she arrive on top of her game.
