Queen Of Burgundy (6/4), Royal Guard (11/2), Rainbow Sign (15/2), Mister Freeze (15/2), River Chorus (14/1), Fact Or Fable (14/1), Hot Desert (14/1), Bartat (14/1), Dark Crocodile (25/1), Blue Cable (25/1), Queen Sarabi (33/1), Quarter Blue (50/1), Sirbowtieman (100/1), Poetry And Art (200/1)

MISTER FREEZE is in better form than he's been for a while, unlucky to bump into one at the top of his game at Lingfield last time, and is taken to end his losing run. Queen of Burgundy capitalised on a career-low mark in ready fashion here last week and remains on a fair mark under a penalty, while Royal Guard wasn't seen to best effect at Newcastle and is best judged on his Wolverhampton win.
