Constitution Hill (1/7), Epatante (7/1), Sceau Royal (20/1), Metier (40/1), Highway One O Two (50/1)

CONSTITUTION HILL denied Epatante a third win in the Fighting Ffith last month and it's highly likely he'll prevent his stablemate achieving a similar feat in this contest as he was so impressive at Newcastle and looks a once-in-a-generation hurdler.
