14 are set to go to post in the finale, and we'll side with BILBOA to end up in the winners' enclosure, ahead of City For Conquest and Mrs Bun. None of these are in great form though, and there could be a surprise winner. Bilboa has to overcome a high draw, but has one of the more experienced apprentices jockeys on board in Ashley Morgan. City For Conquest is top weight, but not really giving that much away. She may be held up early on, and tends to do her best work late. Mrs Bun hasn't shown a great deal so far, but is one of the less exposed types here. It's not a race to be lumping on in, with just a marginal preference for Bilboa.
