The City's Phantom (9/4), Pjanoo (9/4), First Officer (9/2), Promoter (9/2), Evania (8/1)

Verdict

It may pay to narrow this year's Challenge Whip down to the pair of 3-y-os. PJANOO's last 2 efforts in Racing League handicaps look very solid form in the context of this race and he's preferred to Promoter who has been a little disappointing so far this year but is one who could react well to blinkers.

  1. PJANOO
  2. PROMOTER
  3. THE CITY'S PHANTOM
