Royal Reserve (9/4), Dream Machine (11/4), Birch Vale (10/3), Beach Break (7/2), Embole (7/2), Champagne Mist (11/2), Desiremoi D'Authie (11/1), Nefyn Bay (33/1)

After making a promising start to life at this level when runner-up to an in-form rival at Warwick, Champagne Mist must enter considerations. He is still lightly raced and is competing off just a 3lb higher mark now. Royal Reserve took a good step forward from his seasonal return at Perth to go close over C&D at the beginning of the month and is a major player off just 1lb higher. However, the selection is DREAM MACHINE who looked an exciting hurdles recruit when getting the better of Gunnery over this C&D recently, and can make a successful transition to the handicap ranks off what is a fair enough mark.
