Nine Elms (5/2), Yagood (10/3), Corrida De Toros (9/2), Star Ascending (7/1), Windsorlot (17/2), Cap D'Antibes (11/1), Princess Carly (16/1), Art Of America (22/1), Blueskyandsunshine (33/1)

YAGOOD has joined a young up-and-coming trainer and he hinted he could win off this sort of mark last autumn when third at Chelmsford. He may be able to start life with his new handler with a win. Nine Elms is a consistent sort who goes well here so has to be respected. Corrida de Toros shouldn't be far away either.
