Dutch Uncle (11/8), Elysian Prince (11/4), Starlit Cantata (5/1), Believe It (6/1), Exceeding Power (16/1), The Gay Cavalier (20/1), Icebuster (33/1), Genuine Approval (33/1)
STARLIT CANTATA has a fine record around this track and a repeat of the second placed effort at Chelmsford City last time out could be enough to take this. Dutch Uncle wasn't helped by being poorly positioned last time out and one would expect a horse with such talent would have a better record than two wins from 19 starts. Considering he's likely to be a short priced favourite he's respected but opposable. Elysian Prince is another C&D winner who has the potential to be better than his current mark. The booking of George Baker suggests a big run is expected.
1. Starlit Cantata
2. Dutch Uncle
3. Elysian Prince
