Dargiannini (2/1), Whatsupwithyou (11/2), Jay Bee Why (11/2), Bold Plan (13/2), Pileon (10/1), Give Me A Moment (11/1), Lock's Corner (12/1), Stimulating Song (14/1), Champagne City (22/1), Umndeni (28/1), Poseidon (40/1)

A handicap restricted to those advancing in years, so DARGIANNINI makes plenty of appeal given that he's a relatively low-mileage 8-y-o who proved better than ever on just his second start for Harry Derham when scoring in tidy fashion at Uttoxeter in January. That race was run in a good time and an 8 lb rise looks manageable. Lock's Corner and Whatsupwithyou head the opposition.
