How Bizarre (9/2), Dreamseller (5/1), Delph Crescent (6/1), Merricourt (17/2), Le Bayou (9/1), Chinese Spirit (10/1), Wilhelm Vonvenster (10/1), Finally Mine (11/1), Aegeus (11/1), Zeshov (16/1), Firlinfeu (16/1), Rosemay (18/1), Wensley (25/1), Drogon (25/1)

DREAMSELLER wasted no time getting back to form when gaining a third success of the season here 2 weeks ago, knuckling down well to reel in an unexposed rival near the finish, and should go well again. How Bizarre has a pretty good record around here and is another to consider, while Delph Crescent might have found her latest run coming too soon and can bounce back.
