Shanghai Grace (9/4), Harbour Spirit (7/2), Deira Surprise (7/2), Pacino (11/2), Howzer Black (6/1), Kapono (16/1), Azor Ahai (16/1), Usain Boat (25/1), Champagne Marengo (25/1)

HOWZER BLACK is hard to oppose given the improvement shown at Wolverhampton on his first start since being gelded. There were plenty of winners in that lineup and the time was very quick for the grade. Pacino is another who will find this easier and Shanghai Grace has a chance of completing the hat-trick, but Usain Boat came to hand early last year and the rider has a good record for the yard.
