Elysian Plains (13/8), Eadbhard (15/8), Viscount Wilson (11/4), Dani's Boy (14/1), Dragon Girl (25/1)
EADBHARD may not be on to take a short price about but he looks the answer to this given his manner of victory in similar company last time when Viscount Wilson was comfortably held in third. Elysian Plains may find the drop in grade the answer, but the question remains will he find anything if brought off the bridle. Dani's Boy has a bit to find and connections will be hoping the longer trip puts him on the right path.
