Captain Buck's (11/4), Lithic (4/1), Abbreviate (4/1), Cuirassier Dempire (6/1), Canyouringmeback (6/1), Sporting Boy (8/1), Exxaro (9/1), Aunty Ann (12/1), The Happy Chappy (14/1)

Verdict

ABBREVIATE.represents a stable with an impressive 43% strike-rate (3/7) in recent weeks and he can put a disappointing latest effort behind him to defy top weight in this competitive staying handicap chase. Canyouringmeback is bidding to complete a hat-trick and can claim second following a significant rise in the weights for his latest victory while third place can go to Sporting Boy who ran well at Newton Abbot last time.
