Gobi Star (5/2), Chica Power (4/1), Knockmore Prince (9/2), Bucky Larson (7/1), Circles (15/2), Amemri (16/1), Woodrow (16/1), Suityourselfboss (16/1), Fahari (16/1), Cherry Bloom (18/1), Bellick (18/1), Try Hard (18/1), Markievicz (22/1), El Padre (33/1), Almost An Angel (50/1), Play It Again Zaam (66/1), Ceres Ring (66/1)

KNOCKMORE PRINCE shaped well from a long way back after attracting support here last time and, from an appealing mark, he's fancied to get his head in front if the race is run to suit. Gobi Star looks the main danger and Bucky Larson isn't without hope.
