Petit Mouchoir (4/6), Bapaume (5/2), Davids Charm (12/1), L'impertinent (12/1), Sole Pretender (14/1), Wonder Laish (16/1), Us And Them (16/1), Tudor City (28/1), Ena Baie (40/1), Twelve Olympians (300/1)

PETIT MOUCHOIR ran a cracker in the County at Cheltenham last time and, under the same excellent young rider, he's fancied to get the better of Bapaume in a race where the pair stand out. Davids Charm is a danger on form but has an 8-month absence to overcome.
