Alice's Dream is a likely non-runner so that leaves Lingfield fourth What A Boy as the best of those with experience ahead of Nottingham runner-up Kath's Boy, though that's not saying much.

The Acclamation colt wouldn't need to be anything special to make a winning start and is preferred to Captain Sue, who is likely to come into her own over longer trips next season.
