Zonda (2/1), Shuil Ceoil (9/4), Kit's Coty (9/2), Chauffeur Driven (6/1), Hermes Boy (15/2), Paddy De Pole (11/1), Ask Brewster (16/1), Iddergem (40/1)

ZONDA and Kit's Coty are both armed with potential and the vote goes to the former, who shaped well when fourth on his handicap bow at Ascot. It's by no means a two-horse race, though, with Chauffeur Driven and Shuil Ceoil both accorded respect, while it'll be interesting to see how the Paul Nicholls-trained handicap debutant Paddy de Pole shapes up in the betting.
