Rory (7/2), Mews House (9/2), Yukon Mission (6/1), Sound Of Iona (13/2), Thrilla In Manila (7/1), Triple Jaye (11/1), Denzil's Laughing (20/1), Rose Bandit (22/1), Marwari (22/1), Sixcor (25/1), Refuge (25/1), Abel Handy (25/1), Tanasoq (25/1), Afandem (33/1), Big Thanks (40/1), Corton Lass (50/1)

RORY showed improved form to resume winning ways in good style at Musselburgh 3 weeks ago and he possesses a more likeable profile than most at this sort of level. He's preferred to Thrilla In Manila, who was a close second off this mark at Catterick last week, and improving 3-y-o filly Triple Jaye, who is seeking a 4-timer.
