This is one for market watchers. Gordon Elliott and Jamie Codd have been farming these races all season so The Shearers Wife will attract support even though she's bred to be a stayer. Patrick Mullins rides Sparky Stowaway, who is out of a winning bumper, though it's Katie Walsh's mount VOCARIUM who could be the one. A son of Poet's Voice out of a Flat winner, he's a half-brother to several very smart performers on the level and should have more basic pace than most of these rivals. Lady Ischia has a smart pedigree and is one for the future while Finny Maguire well get a tune out of You Raised Me Up, who is out of a winning bumper.
