Almost Gotaway (11/8), Sami Bear (6/4), Lady Wilberry (11/2), Benandgone (8/1), Blitz Spirit (16/1), Sufi (20/1), Sure Listen (33/1), Megalodon (40/1), Great Commission (50/1)

Verdict

ALMOST GOTAWAY is lightly raced over hurdles and shaped as if better for the race when third at Ffos Las 25 days ago, so he gets the marginal vote ahead of Sami Bear, who also arrives in good order and represents a stable in red-hot form. Lady Wilberry is also of interest on her first handicap outing.

  1. ALMOST GOTAWAY (IRE)
  2. SAMI BEAR
  3. LADY WILBERRY
