National Gallery (11/10), Mna Na Mhi (9/2), I Am Joking (5/1), Ano Syra (8/1), Juno Beach (10/1), Artistic Rhythm (11/1), Hypernova (18/1), Aristovic (28/1), Angel Girl (33/1), Precedent (40/1), Gloria Rosa (50/1), Kodis Well (50/1), Urban Oasis (50/1), Patrick Street (50/1), Somedayonedaynever (250/1), Calibrachoa (250/1), Danmars Rogue (300/1)

MNA NA MHI caught the eye from an unpromising position when second over C&D on debut, so she's worth a chance to find the requisite improvement to get off the mark at the second attempt despite a wide draw. National Gallery, who was collared late last month, is a formidable opponent, while Artistic Rhythm is an interesting newcomer for a powerful yard.
