Willie Boy (11/4), Get On The Yager (11/4), Vendor (3/1), Caraline (8/1), Oak Vintage (9/1), Special Catch (9/1), Pain Au Chocolat (14/1)

Verdict

An interesting race for a decent prize and SPECIAL CATCH could come good again, now back up to this trip and from what looks an attractive mark on form of not so long ago. Willie Boy could be a big danger, with Pain Au Chocolat of interest if supported. Get On The Yager can't be ruled out, along with last year's winner Caraline, but both have a bit to prove. Oak Vintage is not written off either.
  1. Special Catch
  2. Willie Boy
  3. Get On The Yager
