Belle Rouge (7/4), Beautiful Crown (9/2), Swallowdale (5/1), Greystoke (6/1), Jack Of Trades (13/2), Simple Star (14/1), Beastie Boy (20/1)

BELLE ROUGE won easily on her handicap debut here last time and there is probably more to come now she steps up in trip. She's difficult to oppose under a penalty. Swallowdale is progressing with every run and she could take another step forward after her Wolverhampton victory. Beautiful Crown can't be ruled out either.
