Unexpected Party (11/2), Primoz (6/1), My Mate Mozzie (13/2), Jazzy Matty (15/2), JPR One (8/1), General Medrano (10/1), So Scottish (12/1), American Mike (14/1), Conyers Hill (18/1), The King Of Prs (18/1), Dancing On My Own (18/1), Traprain Law (20/1), Jasko Des Dames (22/1), Western Zephyr (22/1), Midnight It Is (25/1), Third Time Lucki (28/1), Fringill Dike (33/1), Nells Son (33/1), Martator (50/1), Gaelic Arc (100/1)

Plenty to consider in what is a typically intriguing renewal. UNEXPECTED PARTY was a decisive winner of this last season so still looks on a good mark off 6 lb higher. This has likely been his long-term target once again, shaping as if he retains all his ability in 4 runs this campaign. Gavin Cromwell holds a strong hand with 3 live chances, My Mate Mozzie looking the pick, while Jpr One's Tingle Creek form puts him right in the mix off top weight.
