Grand Providence (9/4), Novel Legend (11/4), Temporize (4/1), Aggagio (9/2), Vino Victrix (11/2), Pons Aelius (8/1), Rhythmic Intent (10/1), Earlofthecotswolds (28/1), Merveillo (80/1)

The Johnston's have saddled the winner of this handicap 3 times since 2018 and PONS AELIUS is taken to enhance that record. The drop back to 1¾m counted against him at Sandown last time and he is appealing back at the scene/over the trip of his latest success in June off just a 2 lb lower mark. The form of Novel Legend's latest effort at Newbury has been well and truly boosted since, and he is a much-respected main danger. Temporize is third choice ahead of Grand Providence and Rhythmic Intent.
