Fakir D'Oudairies (2/1), Politologue (5/2), Notebook (9/2), Dashel Drasher (5/1), Master Tommytucker (13/2), Nuts Well (14/1), Itchy Feet (14/1), Duc Des Genievres (40/1)

POLITOLOGUE has won this in the past and can be forgiven a slightly underwhelming second to First Flow in the Clarence House at Ascot. He should be primed for a bold showing and is marginally preferred to the Ryanair runner-up Fakir d'Oudairies, with Dashel Drasher considered after his Ascot Chase success.
