Fox Journey (15/8), Two Brothers (13/2), Haseefah (15/2), Tamilla (15/2), Wootton'sun (8/1), Geremia (8/1), Fairmac (17/2), Carrigillihy (11/1), Derry Lad (14/1), Bollin Margaret (14/1), Demilion (18/1)

Plenty in with a squeak but the vote goes to FOX JOURNEY, who left previous efforts behind when making a successful reappearance/handicap debut at Newmarket last month, and with this extra distance sure to play to his strengths, Sir Michael Stoute's 3-y-o is taken to double his tally. Wootton'sun has returned in top form, so he could be the one to chase the selection home, with Derry Lad and Two Brothers also considered.
