Our Duke (9/4), Killultagh Vic (5/1), Outlander (6/1), Djakadam (13/2), Anibale Fly (7/1), Valseur Lido (8/1), Minella Rocco (12/1), Mala Beach (14/1), Alpha Des Obeaux (25/1), Edwulf (33/1)

OUTLANDER put a disappointing effort at Haydock behind him when claiming third in a similar race to this in December and with the first two home absent from this contest he can claim a fourth Grade 1 victory today. Two of those Grade 1 victories have come at this venue and he can claim this ahead of Our Duke who can put a disappointing seasonal debut behind him by claiming second. Minella Rocco finished behind the selection here last time out and can finish third today.
