Shuv H'penny King (11/4), King Tiger (7/2), Spirit Of Rowdown (7/2), Dacesa (17/2), Dark Esteem (10/1), Final Rendezvous (18/1), Capo Bay (20/1), Baileys Warrior (22/1), Alba De Tormes (22/1), Fast Moon (25/1), Copake (40/1), Hugsy (50/1), Halwa Azyan (150/1)

SHUV H'PENNY KING pulled too hard at Newmarket 11 days ago and is worth another chance having shown improved form when a close third at Lingfield prior to that. Alba de Tormes wasn't seen to best effect at Pontefract and remains of interest at this level, while Final Rendezvous is a potential improver on handicap bow.
