Master Archie (15/8), Sweet Future (7/2), Gallic Princess (7/1), Winter Stories (7/1), Anna Capri (15/2), Kwite A Trip (14/1), Winter Smoke (18/1), Bold Ransom (18/1), Chantyman (20/1), Rivarine (28/1), Singforafa (33/1), Twice As Splendid (40/1), Kings Road (40/1), Country Squire (66/1)

Verdict

GALLIC PRINCESS is the tentative selection but hasn't much room for error. Anna Capri can also play a leading part, while Sweet Future is another worth looking at.
