Havagomecca (4/1), Riversway (4/1), Mereside Angel (9/2), Primo's Comet (11/2), Sheikh Maz Mahood (15/2), Sound Of Iona (9/1), Speedacus (9/1), Lady Lade (14/1), Eeh Bah Gum (33/1)

Verdict

Largely progressive last term, RIVERSWAY produced a pleasing comeback effort when third behind Havagomecca over C&D 10 days ago and, 5 lb better off with that rival here, she shades the vote to turn the tables. Multiple C&D winner Primo's Comet and Mereside Angel complete the shortlist.

  1. RIVERSWAY
  2. HAVAGOMECCA
  3. PRIMO'S COMET
