Captain Drake (6/4), Western Wave (5/1), Big Penny (6/1), Mon Palois (13/2), Shantung (7/1), Ardera Cross (15/2), Creep Desbois (10/1), Tomkevi (16/1), Red Devil Lads (66/1), Casper King (66/1)

Verdict

Quite a few with claims here in an open contest. Tomkevi looks sure to make a bold bid for the hat-trick in his attempt to repeat last year's success in thsi race and should give it a good go, but SHANTUNG gets the nod on her handicap debut as she steps up to what might prove her optimum trip. Big Penny has every chance and won't be far away, nor will Ardera Cross, Captain Drake and Western Wave.
