Arlecchino's Rex (13/8), Take The Boat (3/1), Rumba Bay (4/1), Me Tarzan (5/1), Yesterday's Gone (13/2), Adversary (14/1), Vizzavona Lady (18/1), Broadhaven Bay (20/1), Jack Andrea (22/1), Off The Bench (25/1), Lunanova (28/1), California Fling (33/1), Fortunas Dream (66/1), Summer Of Light (66/1)

ARLECCHINO'S REX was no match for an improver here on his penultimate start and had excuses when well backed at Wolverhampton subsequently. He's on a good mark and can strike back from a break with Oisin Murphy up. Rumba Bay is in top form and has to be respected seeking a third win in 4 starts. Off The Bench and Yesterday's Gone are also interesting.
