Exorbitant (10/3), Under Curfew (7/2), Show Compassion (4/1), White Umbrella (6/1), Coast (15/2), Stella Blue (9/1), Liosa (10/1), Outreach (14/1), Billian (14/1), Deputise (16/1), Second Collection (20/1), Alfred Cove (25/1), Kingsbury (40/1)

A tight-knit sprint in which UNDER CURFEW is taken to end a long losing run now he returns to his optimum trip with Oisin Murphy also in the saddle for the first time. Stella Blue is feared most on the back of her resurgent Southwell fourth. Show Compassion and Exorbitant appeal as the pick of the rest for minor honours.
