Valsad (4/1), Regal Empire (9/2), Scampi (5/1), Onesmoothoperator (11/2), Saratoga Gold (13/2), Star Harbour (15/2), Graignes (11/1), Enemy (16/1), Percy Shelley (33/1), Soto Sizzler (33/1), Protected Guest (40/1), The Thunderer (80/1)

A fiercely competitive concluding contest to Racing League 2023 and the one who makes most appeal is VALSAD, who went down only narrowly to a progressive 3-y-o at Newbury last month and provided he takes to the surface (makes all-weather debut), Harry & Roger Charlton's charge can double his tally. Regal Empire won twice at this track earlier in the year and arriving on the back of Shergar Cup success, he rates the main danger. Onesmoothoperator and Scampi round off the shortlist.
