Bubbles In May (6/4), Elusive Gigolo (5/2), Mahlers Dollar (11/2), Jesse Evans (6/1), Fix The Bill (10/1), Mars Harper (16/1), Guns For Hire (33/1), Thomas Labeille (66/1), Little Mar (125/1), Go On Now (150/1), Champagne Vacation (150/1)

Verdict

There are some interesting newcomers in this contest, but the preference is to stick with one who already offers racecourse experience in FIX THE BILL. While he was no match for an easy winner, he took the eye when keeping on well that day and while he will want further in time, he should have the necessary improvement to take this. Bubbles In May has some blueblood in her pedigree being closely related to Grade 1 winner Champagne Fever, while Jesse Evans and Elusive Gigolo have taking profiles too. Mahlers Dollar is also a main danger if replicating his debut effort, but isn't necessarily in need of the drop back to this trip.
  1. Fix The Bill
  2. Guns For Hire
  3. Bubbles In May
