Belle Of Belize (9/4), Alex The Great (7/2), Magic Choice (9/2), Love Lies (7/1), Florence (10/1), Look To The Sky (11/1), Ilha Da Varlette (14/1), Allez Les Bleu (20/1), Hear The Trumpet (20/1), Ramsay (20/1), Raeesah (22/1), Madame Patrice (33/1), Timeforthat (33/1), Nymeria (50/1)

Verdict

LOVE LIES's recent runs have had a lot to like about them and he just about sets the standard. Magic Choice makes most appeal of the rest, while Hear The Trumpet can't be ruled out.
