Starshiba (6/4), Super Den (11/4), Masqool (10/3), Chief's Will (9/2), Further Measure (7/1), Arctician (17/2), Rhubarb Bikini (10/1)

STARSHIBA is back in top form again, perhaps a shade unfortunate not to complete the hat-trick over 7f here 11 days ago ad he looks the answer. Super Den deserves credit for his consistency and is second choice.
