Gyllen (7/2), Joe Cotton (9/2), Wot You Wearing (5/1), Mactavish (5/1), Top Cloud (6/1), Let's Go Amigo (8/1), Samatian (17/2), Karakoram (10/1), Grass's Jet (12/1), Oscarsman (33/1), Be My Sea (125/1)

A competitive handicap with plenty arriving in form. KARAKORAM has dipped below his last winning mark and confirmed his return to form here a couple of weeks ago, so he's the tentative selection. Hat-trick seekers Wot You Wearing and Mactavish head up the opposition.
