Thomas Patrick (3/1), Elegant Escape (4/1), Kemboy (5/1), The Young Master (15/2), American (15/2), Ms Parfois (8/1), Dingo Dollar (10/1), Sizing Tennessee (12/1), Black Corton (12/1), Beware The Bear (14/1), Flying Angel (18/1), West Approach (25/1), Go Conquer (25/1), Allysson Monterg (50/1)

Verdict

A huge prize up for grabs and a race in which second-season chasers have a fine record. The best of those at the weights may be THOMAS PATRICK, Elegant Escape and Ms Parfois, with preference for the former whose solid jumping should hold him in good stead in a race sure to be run at a good clip. American is interesting on ground he should relish, while the admirable Black Corton and improving Dingo Dollar are also likely to go well. Beware The Bear may outrun his odds as he usually goes well fresh and has had a wind operation.
  1. Thomas Patrick
  2. Elegant Escape
  3. Ms Parfois
