Mustaqqir (5/2), I Am The Secret (5/1), Arranmore (11/2), All You Wish (6/1), Frow (13/2), Ahorsecalledwanda (8/1), Foreshore (25/1), Princesse Animale (28/1), Sword Exceed (28/1), Magicinthemaking (33/1), Penpal (33/1), Mostaqqer (33/1), Messalina (33/1), Born To Sire (80/1)

Having dropped to a career-low mark, AHORSECALLEDWANDA was denied a run at a crucial stage over C&D a fortnight and ultimately did well to finish fourth. That performance suggestts she's ready to strike granted a trouble-free passage. Magicinthemaking can give it another good go, with Mustaqqir also interesting.
