Plenty in with a shout over this marathon trip, including last year's winner GREAT RAFFLES. It's possible he will be sharper for his Wetherby run 24 days ago and this sort of mark doesn't look beyond him back up in trip. The Blame Game and Thatbeatsbanagher have both compiled good course records and are others expected to be in the mix.
