Bigmartre (9/4), Upsilon Bleu (5/1), Theo (11/2), Duke Of Navan (6/1), Foxtail Hill (7/1), Double W's (10/1), Gino Trail (10/1), Movie Legend (12/1), Forest Bihan (14/1)
Upsilon Bleu took this on good ground from the same mark last year and is probably better with cut, so he has to be short-listed again. Henry Brooke rode him that day but prefers Forest Bihan here and with respect to Pauline Robson's gelding, Brian Ellison's runner has that tough more class. If back to his best he would be hard to beat here despite topweight, but he has a bit to prove and preference is for the improving BIGMARTRE. Harry Whittington's seven-year-old has been given time since winning well at Newbury and may still be well handicapped. Front-runner Duke Of Navan and Theo each have a squeak, while an in-form Foxtail Hill would be very interesting and his inclusion here suggests that there will be plenty of pace on.
