Super Schwartz (5/4), Mbappe (4/1), Havana Touch (11/2), Damia (8/1), Monkey Miss (10/1), Ritzy (12/1), Snow Boots (14/1), Justahunch (20/1), Dominant Force (25/1), Willowbank (33/1), My Lady Samantha (33/1), Someone Like You (66/1)

MBAPPE took a step forward when beaten ¾-length by Super Schwartz at Chelmsford and, assuming that that was no flash in the pan, Ed Walker's charge may well get the better off that rival on 3 lb better terms here. Super Schwartz remains of interest given his progressive profile and is clear second choice.
