Alejandro (7/4), First Flight (4/1), Rockwood (11/2), Mutarakez (11/2), Pumaflor (6/1), Two For Two (8/1), Fingal's Cave (10/1), Ginger Jack (20/1)

Verdict

First Flight is entitled to consideration on his return from wind surgery, while Ginger Jack is on a handy mark and with his stable having been in decent form for a while, he would be interesting if the money comes. However, TWO FOR TWO is well handicapped and although not always consistent, he has shown enough to suggest that he can make this race his.
  1. Two For Two
  2. First Flight
