Look for Eton Forever to continue trading in the neighbourhood of 5/1 or 11/2 as he moves towards the race. Fury has been dropping steadily and is now as short as 13/2 with some bookmakers and as high as 8/1 with others.

Cocozza can be backed anywhere from 9/1 to 10/1 right now after seeing a significant amount of money move in his direction over the past 24 hours. He has been eased in from 16s after his presence in the contest was firmed up by connections. The logic behind Cocozza's backing is that he's improved significantly from last year. With just a maiden victory to his credit, he'll need to step it up against this type of competition and it will be a huge credit to his name if he can triumph over the older colts and geldings he faces off against here.

A son of Elusive Quality out of a Sadler's Wells mare, Cocozza will likely go to the front in this one and attempt to set down a quicker pace than you might actually expect.

Edinburgh Knight gets some real support and his price is hanging in there around 10/1 or 12/1 depending on whom you're wagering with. Look for him to drop to about 8/1 on the day of the race as he continues to take money.

Mull of Killough is garbering support with a price of about 20/1 and several of the each-way contenders here do look strong.

Mia's Boy is also well in the mix with a 25/1 price tag. Look for him to kick on nicely after his recent third place finish at Wolverhampton.
