Smarter (5/2), Bonneville (5/2), Truckingby (9/2), Victoriano (5/1), Ginge N Tonic (9/1), Glutnforpunishment (14/1), Munstead Moonshine (16/1), Gate City (25/1)

A race which lacks a standout contender, with a number of those in the line-up possibly capable of showing improved form now tackling a longer and more suitable trip (based on pedigree). This list includes the William Haggas-trained gelding Smarter who has had the headgear removed for his second start in handicap company, the Archie Watson-trained Victoriano, and of course the Mark Johnston-trained Truckingby. However, without the early market forecast to confirm, the suspicion is that Andrew Balding's filly MUNSTEAD MOONSHINE could have as much to offer as those aforementioned rivals at potentially more rewarding odds.
