Soapy Stevens (5/4), Snow Ocean (9/2), Natty Night (11/2), Abel Tasman (9/1), Punting (11/1), Toronto (12/1), Heart Of Soul (12/1), Magellan (16/1), Arabist (25/1)

Verdict

The 3-y-o SOAPY STEVENS was beaten a fair way when fourth at Salisbury recently, but his Doncaster reappearance near miss was promising and he may well be the answer off a feather weight. Snow Ocean likes it round here and is second choice ahead of Abel Tasman, who looks the pick of the Ian Williams-trained trio.

  1. SOAPY STEVENS
  2. SNOW OCEAN (IRE)
  3. ABEL TASMAN
