Sword Spirit (5/2), Regal Eagle (10/3), Calin's Lad (7/1), Deb's Delight (15/2), Critical Thinking (10/1), Kendergarten Kop (12/1), Pearl Spectre (12/1), Moxy Mares (14/1), Nezar (14/1), Run After Genesis (14/1), Prince Rock (28/1), Performance Poet (33/1)

CALIN'S LAD came out on top in good style at Kempton last time and may have more to offer for his in-form yard. Deb's Delight took a step back in the right direction off his reduced mark at Newcastle and is another to consider, while Sword Spirit went close in a novice at Kempton and remains with potential now handicapping.
