Win Some Lose Some (15/8), Schiehallion (7/2), Duchamps Art (13/2), A Mere Bagatelle (8/1), Western Model (10/1), Granpa Ger (12/1), Brianna Lily (18/1), Lucky Storm (20/1), Menindee (25/1), Pat Coyne (25/1), Gonetomillgrove (28/1), Cocoplum (33/1), We Will Rock You (40/1), Thedancingfarrier (80/1)

WIN SOME LOSE SOME indicated last time that he's crying out for this stiffer test of stamina and after just 4 career runs, there should be plenty more to come from him. He looks the way to go, for all Lucky Storm arrives at the top of her game, while Duchamps Art is a fascinating contender given the yard she's moved to.
