Maple Jack (13/8), Showtime Mahomes (5/1), Bay Breeze (6/1), Straits Of Moyle (8/1), As If By Chance (9/1), Run This Way (11/1), Cooperation (12/1), Muscika (14/1), Bellagio Man (18/1), Abolish (25/1), True Mason (33/1), Golden Apollo (40/1), Newyorkstateofmind (50/1), Show Me Show Me (50/1)

Verdict

SHOWTIME MAHOMES is handicapped to win on his strong early-season 3-y-o form, and having gone down by just a length to Bay Breeze at Ripon on return just over a fortnight ago, Grant Tuer's charge gets the vote to reverse placings with that outing under his belt. Maple Jack made a winning reappearance over C&D 2 weeks ago and he can fight out minor honours with As If By Chance.

  1. SHOWTIME MAHOMES
  2. BAY BREEZE
