Chant continues to frustrate off his current mark while Flying Cape has been thereabouts of late but has yet to win in 16 starts. Rex Whistler and Zeus Magic have two ways of running so a token vote goes to prolific course winner MAYBEME with Megan Carberry taking 7lb off her back as she won this in 2011.
