Umndeni (3/1), Morning Vicar (5/1), Tedham (5/1), Finalshot (7/1), Dream Brother (11/1), Easter Gold (12/1), On Parole (12/1), Skandiburg (14/1), Colditz Castle (14/1), Doyannie (16/1), Cupid's Icon (33/1), Shanty Alley (40/1), Champagne Poppy (40/1), Zaydanides (50/1), Debrouillard (66/1), Despicable Me (66/1), El Deguello (100/1), Reggie B (200/1)

FINALSHOT can get off the mark at the second time of asking in division one of the bumper. The selection ran well when making his debut in February and with that experience under his belt he can get the better of the only previous winner i the field Midnight Vicar who is dropping in grade for this. Umndeni was an expensive purchase last year and the well-bred gelding can claim third on his first racecourse outing.
