  1st Any Second Now 9/1 - 70 2nd Delta Work 8/1 - 65 3rd Burrows Saint 20/1 - 60 3rd Santini 40/1 - 60 4th Mount Ida 33/1 - 55 5th Top Ville Ben 50/1 - 50 5th Cloth Cap 25/1 - 50 5th Good Boy Bobby 33/1 - 50 5th Minella Times 9/1 - 50 As you can see it is very close, i actaully wasnt sure i would get a clear winner here, but we do Any Second Now was 3rd in this last year, so we know he can go well over C&D, what worries me slightly is that he carried 10st 9lb last year and this year he has to carry nearly a stone more at 11st 8lb, now horse in the last 23 years has carried more than 11st 9lb.

The ground is perfect for him and we know he can get around the track. He wasnt an obvious choice for me. He was also badly hampared in last years race and still came 3rd so there could be something in that. Delta Work is comin...
