Someone Exciting (9/2), State Residence (6/1), Regal Decree (6/1), My Girl Maisie (8/1), Bingo George (10/1), Cryptonite (12/1), Nellie Deen (14/1), Majestic Stone (14/1), Mighty Bond (14/1), Skadi (14/1), She's Zoff (16/1), Goadby (16/1), Gaelic Wizard (20/1), Harbour Patrol (20/1), Twistsandturns (25/1), Atrafan (33/1), Little Kingdom (33/1), Thorntoun Lady (40/1), Vaux (50/1), Monsieur Mel (66/1)

The pace in the race looks like it will be coming from between stalls five and nine. This will give a good pull in to the race for SOMETHING EXCITING, nothing of any note this season until last time out when third of 15 at Catterick over 7f in a run that can have him spot on for this. Regal Decree and Cryptonite can grab a place, while Mighty Bond can reward each way players.
