This is wide open but Golden Mile victor RHOSCOLYN is always to be feared here and with Oisin Murphy back in the saddle he is taken to complete a hat-trick in this contest. Alpha Crucis also has winning form over C&D and heads the list of dangers, while Arkhalia Flynn, Ata Rangi and Cerulean Bay all need factoring in too. Whitcombe Rockstar completes the shortlist.
- RHOSCOLYN
- ALPHA CRUCIS (IRE)
