Distant Chimes (7/4), Desert Friend (7/2), Robert L'Echelle (11/2), Charlie D (6/1), Super Kid (9/1), Ticklish (12/1), Inn The Bull (12/1), Grand Inquisitor (40/1), Kaser (40/1), Throckley (100/1)
This is a good handicap contest with a number holding fair claims. DESERT FRIEND is asked to take on older horse on his handicap bow over a new trip and that could be a tip in itself. He has hinted he may have a fair amount of ability and gets the nod. Last year's winner Super Kid comes here on the back of a game success at Chester and is a proper danger, wheil the likes of Distant Chimes, Inn The Bull and top weight Grand Inquisitor may also have a say in an interesting event.
