Ballykeel (11/4), Landofsmiles (11/4), Scipion (4/1), Caribean Boy (15/2), Definite Plan (10/1), Saint Arvans (12/1), Hermann Clermont (14/1), Western Run (16/1)

Verdict

LANDOFSMILES has won on both of his previous visits to Perth and proved better than ever to score at Uttoxeter last time, so, provided that he doesn't "bounce" on his second run after a lengthy absence, he sets a good standard in this contest. Ballykeel is a leading player on the pick of his recent efforts, whilst Scipion is still fairly low-mileage over fences and is worth a market check on his stable debut.
