Volatile Analyst (3/1), Gobi Star (11/2), Daamberdiplomat (13/2), Collective Power (7/1), Dontspoilasale (8/1), Inishmot Prince (8/1), Ostraka (12/1), Marsa (12/1), Jered Maddox (14/1), Final Voyage (16/1), Rough Diamond (16/1), Prisoner's Dilemma (22/1), Petit Calvados (40/1), Charming Lady (80/1)

Plenty are in with a shout. MARSA has an excellent record here and also figures on a handy-looking mark so gets the vote in a very open-looking handicap. Gobi Star heads the list of dangers on the back of his own recent success here, with Jered Maddox and Daamberdipomat also firmly in the picture.
