Royal Prospect (7/2), Tefnut (4/1), Vintage Polly (4/1), Debated (6/1), Velma (8/1), Perfect Soldier (17/2), Cammy (12/1), Zealous (16/1), Iron Sheriff (18/1), Chifa (25/1), Haven Lady (33/1), Dubai Elegance (66/1), The Game Of Life (66/1), Mr Sundowner (150/1)

ROYAL PROPSECT did well to get third at Redcar last time considering he started out on the wrong side of the track and he's unexposed over this trip, so he's worth a chance to get back to winning ways in an open race. Tefnut and Vintage Polly look the main dangers.
