Stormbound (13/8), Wink Oliver (3/1), Shifting Star (7/2), Fire Tree (5/1), Air Of York (11/2), Tarseekh (8/1), Bloodsweatandtears (8/1), Glenalmond (12/1)
A competitive affair and it might be a shade foolhardy to row in blindly with Stormbound under a 6lb penalty for last week's decisive C&D success. That said, there is no denying that his winning chance is a clear one. Bloodsweatandtears also thrives at this venue, and he can be expected to extract his revenge on his Lingfield conqueror Shifting Star with the excellent Josephine Gordon booked. However, the top-weighted FIRE TREE gets the vote. A drop to this trip looks ideal, and this 7f Irish winner for David Wachman has made a good start to life in England with Charlie Fellowes with his recent Nottingham fifth coming in a decent enough early season contest.
