It's difficult to have much confidence in any of these but SANDY LANE posted a much better effort when beaten only a head at Kempton last week and may come out best with a similar effort. Wolverhampton winner Artful Lady never recovered from today's rider losing an iron exiting the stalls last time but she can figure with normal luck in-running while Chandrayaan has the past form to get involved though he's been below par of late. Greek Islands and My Scat Daddy are others with bits of form that give them a chance if reproducing it here.
