Dancing To Win (11/4), Aunt Bethany (3/1), Celtic Empress (7/2), Lucia Joy (7/2), Undertheboardwalk (6/1), Madame Bonbon (7/1), Miss Harmony (9/1)

DANCING TO WIN is weighted to go close if back on song on her return/debut for Jane Chapple-Hyam and is a tentative selection. Celtic Empress is another who should have a say now the hood goes back on after his reappearance Windsor fifth. Thirsk-scorer Lucia Joy needs to bouce back after a lesser effort over this C&D on Thursday.
