Wintercrack (11/4), Do I Dream (4/1), Gainsbourg (6/1), Phoenix Fire (13/2), Harswell Duke (10/1), On The River (10/1), Pol Roger (14/1), Young Fire (14/1), Star Shield (16/1), Perfect Swiss (28/1), King Sharja (50/1), First Dynasty (80/1)

ON THE RIVER made a winning reappearance over this C&D last April, which turned out to be the first leg of a hat-trick, and he will have every chance if resuming in similarly good form this time round. Harswell Duke and Pol Roger have both slipped to dangerous marks and warrant respect, while last year's winner Do I Dream, Star Shield and Wintercrack are others with claims in a typically competitive and open-looking handicap at this venue.
