Restricted Area (3/1), Esticky End (5/1), Desert Boots (5/1), Swinton Noon (11/2), Space Kid (13/2), Cholmondeley (9/1), Soller Bay (10/1), Beau Tinker (18/1), Omany Amber (28/1), Capla Lass (40/1)

RESTRICTED AREA was doing his best work at the finish here earlier in the month after being poorly placed. That was just his third career start and there may well be more to come. Swinton Noon finished ahead of him here earlier in the month and should go well once again. Cholmondeley is a potential improver on handicap debut.
