Song Of Love (7/2), Specific Gravity (4/1), Red Avenger (4/1), Udogo (6/1), Political Policy (8/1), Johann Bach (9/1), Brokopondo (10/1), Shalaman (10/1), Maknificent (12/1)
Stablemates Udogo and SONG OF LOVE renew rivalry in this, having both tasted victory here in recent times. This trip should favour the latter and with a notable jockey booking he's tipped to get back to winning ways. He'll have to find half-a-length with three time C&D Specific Gravity winner who finished ahead of him in second last month, but there could well be more to come from the five-year-old. Political Policy is dropping towards a mark that will make him dangerous while Red Avenger saw his winning sequence ended off this mark last time but should play a role once more. Brokopondo keeps knocking at the door and this looks the ideal trip for him to finally get in.
