Ramses De Teillee (2/1), Back To The Thatch (9/2), Another Venture (5/1), Ballycross (8/1), Houblon Des Obeaux (9/1), Duke Des Champs (9/1), Wild West Wind (12/1), Ami Desbois (16/1), Prime Venture (20/1), Alfie Spinner (22/1)

Verdict

WILD WEST WIND has shown a liking for this track in the past and he is taken to get back on track by following up last years victory in this contest. The selection has a good record fresh and can get the better of Duke Des Champs who remains open to improvement and is another making his seasonal debut. Veteran Alfie Spinner placed second in this 12 months ago and he can finish third this time around.
