Dr Patrick (7/2), Double Kodiac (7/2), Persian Wolf (11/2), Victory March (13/2), Final Fantasy (8/1), Pro Bono (17/2), She's Good Company (10/1), Munfallet (12/1), Here's Hoping (12/1), Magi Gal (14/1), Dinamine (14/1), Kartayaz (16/1), Freepark (25/1), Crystal Pool (33/1), Flight Path (50/1), Halcyon Gal (66/1), Samaritaine (80/1)

DR PATRICK battled well to see off a subsequent winner over C&D a couple of months ago and, under another positive ride, he's fancied to follow up at the likely expense of the in-form Persian Wolf. Pro Bono also warrants consideration.
