I Wont Back Down (9/4), Factual Fact (10/3), Maxi Mac Gold (10/3), Fourtowns (6/1), Perfect Nelson (9/1), Master Otis (11/1), Alshaheen (18/1), Gabriel Ranger (40/1), Smokey Putnum (50/1), Akaabir (66/1), Pondhill Pulse (150/1)

Verdict

FACTUAL FACT is related to a smart Flat horse and is in excellent hands, so it's worth taking a chance that he can make a successful start. Master Otis is the clear pick of those with experience and Maxi Mac Gold would be of interest if the market spoke in his favour.
