Knights Templar (2/1), Love Happens (3/1), Seventh Gear (10/3), Capoeira (9/2), Helen's Ideal (6/1), Azores (18/1), Man About Town (40/1)

LOVE HAPPENS has been in decent form of late and just about gets the nod in this field. Knights Templar has to come into the equation as well, while Helen's Ideal also commands a second look.
