Grand Bazaar (11/4), Labeebb (9/2), Valyrian Steel (9/2), Alfred Boucher (11/2), Midnights Legacy (10/1), Soto Sizzler (10/1), Lost Eden (11/1), Pirate King (20/1), Koeman (20/1), Protected Guest (50/1)

VALYRIAN STEEL and Grand Bazaar both represent top yards and are still on the up, so they're worth taking against the field in an open-looking event. The first-named, who did well to get up late at Kempton last time, takes marginal preference, with Lost Eden the pick of the remainder.
