Metier (11/4), Carrarea (3/1), Hudson De Grugy (10/3), Lucky Max (13/2), Gowel Road (17/2), Hacker Des Places (20/1), Mack The Man (22/1), Thibault (22/1), Chti Balko (33/1), Sevenna Star (50/1), Antunes (125/1), Destrier (150/1)

Verdict

It's worth chancing METIER to build on his fourth in a strong Ascot handicap before Christmas as he's starting to look well handicapped on his Tolworth form of last season and this deep ground should suit him. Irish-raiders Carrarea and Lucky Max likely have more to offer and are feared most ahead of Chti Balko.
