Smart Boy (9/4), Sneaking Budge (13/2), Road To Rome (7/1), Occasionally Yours (7/1), Galactic Power (8/1), Finula (8/1), Cloth Cap (10/1), Milzipa (10/1), Seven Kingdoms (12/1), Daveron (20/1), Free Bounty (20/1), Marvellous Monty (25/1), Sisania (33/1), Alizee Javilex (33/1), Stonecoldsoba (33/1), Postbridge (50/1)
This may not be as competitive as the numbers suggest with Smart Boy and Milzipa two that could well improve on what they have done so far with that duo deserving of their position towards the head of the market. Of those with more handicap form Galactic Power may well still be able to offer a little more with Sneaking Budge another contender who looks to have more to offer in this sphere. Road To Rome is starting to look interesting and this run will tell us more about his mark and where he stands at the moment. CLOTH CAP is perhaps the most fascinating runner though having been brought on steadily in novice company and looks very much the sort to show more now he goes into handicaps.
