Miquelon (7/4), Bobby On The Beat (5/2), L'Operateur (3/1), West Side Glory (9/2), Lady Gwhinnyvere (50/1)

WEST SIDE GLORY was a bit too free up in trip at Nottingham so the drop back in distance should suit this unexposed filly on handicap bow. She shades the vote over Miquelon, who responded well to headgear when a good second at Wolverhampton starting out in handicaps himself.
