Giko Hard to fancy on these terms.
Absolute Utopia (USA) Hasn't shown much form since returning from a long absence.
Achilles Sky Won a Brighton amateur's race earlier in the season but fairly disappointing all the same.
Robandela (USA) Has the ability if on a going day; not really helped by the race conditions but still a possible.
Alqabas (IRE) Marcus Tregoning cast off; has a bit to find here.
Dardanus Fair form when with Ed Dunlop; not shown too much for new handler.
Pinot Noir Second to Don't Sioux Me at Newbury in July; has each way chances.
Madeline Bassett (IRE) Winner of a weak classified race latest; more on plate today.
Salim Toto Third in Hambleton Cup at Thirsk; form hasn't necessarily worked out though.
Alakananda Very interesting that Prescott has chosen this race rather than a host of maidens that he had earmarked.
