Plenty are in with a shout but SIR LES PATTERSON rates the pick of the weights on the back of a promising debut third here for Stephen Thorne and gets the vote off the same mark. Course winner Stag Night heads the list of dangers, although a solid case can also be made for Nezeeh, Red Evolution and Keke.
