      Of the bigger owners, which ones are less likely to send ones to this race?

      I can't really remember JP having too many leading hopes in it.

        Nope doesn’t really have many aimed at it, however off the top of my head:

        Regal Encore favourite in 2013. Came second

        Blue Sari was Willies best hope in 2019

          Cheers, was wracking my brains trying to remember that horse, I recall the finish between AP and Ruby but forgot the horses' names, now know it was the year Briar Hill won

            I think Bective Stud have a load of horses that could end up here. Found A Fifty definitely one of the more interesting ones though.

              Firefox is one I’m really interested to see. Think he could be a good one.

                Firefox has 2 entries this weekend
                One is a hurdle race so I would hold off for now

                              I can't imagine Codd made himself many friends on the back of that overconfidence
