Almadrina (5/2), Little Sunflower (9/2), Okaidi (7/1), Amal (9/1), Racy Stacey (9/1), Gently Spoken (10/1), Sorbonne (10/1), Rockesbury (14/1), Stage Lights (16/1), Rinty Maginty (25/1), Chickenfortea (40/1), Love Sensation (66/1), Jonathans Princess (200/1)

ALMADRINA found her run of good form coming to a halt at Chelmsford 3 weeks ago but she was ridden too aggressively upped in trip that day so is worth another chance. Little Sunflower showed improved form here the last twice, winning over C&D before a close third over 6f 3 weeks ago, and is another to consider. Rockesbury is best of the others.
