Calevade (7/4), Bill Cody (2/1), Lucky Lover Boy (11/2), Gordalan (8/1), Remember The Days (9/1), Kitty's Cove (14/1), Karasheni (33/1), Ska Ridge (33/1), Montelimar (100/1)

Verdict

Unlike the opening division this contest lacks a standout contender. Lucky Lover Boy merits respect on the basis of his hurdles form for Oliver Greenall but it's debatable as to exactly what Kitty's Cove and Gordalan achieved when winning on turf at Musselburgh (2m2f) and Catterick (1m6f) respectively. Bill Cody must enter the thought process despite paying a heavy price for racing keenly at Chelmsford (2m) last month. However, despite having stamina to conclusively prove at 2m the lowly weighted and seemingly improving CALEVADE receives the tentative vote.
  1. Calevade
  2. Lucky Lover Boy
  3. Bill Cody
