Betterdaysrcoming (1/1), Roaring Gallagher (15/8), She's Local (9/2), Pulse Light (12/1), Belissimo (25/1), Quiz Test (33/1), Gut Feeling (100/1), Holy Scat Passion (125/1)

BETTERDAYSRCOMING has the best form and may well do better still, so he's fancied to get off the mark unless newcomer Roaring Gallagher proves to be above average. She's Local is also a player.
