Nighteyes (8/11), Roast Chestnut (2/1), Chumbaa (9/1), Treat Of Treats (16/1), Nzinga (40/1)

ROAST CHESTNUT rates a sure-fire improver on the back of a promising debut at Windsor and with form-pick Nighteyes disappointing last time, she could be the answer. Treat of Treats is another to note on debut.
