Orion's Bow (2/1), Rasheeq (5/1), Line Of Reason (9/1), Soie D'leau (11/1), Afandem (11/1), Lexington Abbey (12/1), Robot Boy (12/1), Doc Sportello (12/1), Art Collection (12/1), Escalating (14/1), Jack Dexter (16/1), Hoofalong (20/1), Distant Past (25/1), Confessional (40/1)

Verdict

An open-looking sprint handicap, where a class act could prove the answer, and with that in mind AFANDEM is interesting. A Group 3 winner in France, he has run some excellent races in other top contests and still has scope for further improvement off what could prove to be a lenient handicap mark. If able to steal this race from the head of affairs likely front-runner Sole D'leau is also of interest, while Escalating is worth a try at this level having run some great races in lower-grade events.
