Gordon Elliott and Harry Cobden combine with NEWBROOK DIAMOND, who wasn't at his best last time but earns the vote on the strength of his earlier form. Off The Jury is another leading contender on his peak efforts but his last run was disconcerting and the main threat to the selection could come from Gee Force Flyer, who was third in the EBF Final at Sandown last time. The Elliott newcomer Holy Joe and point winner Expensive Emotion are other interesting contenders.[Ben Hutton]
