Dumfries (5/2), Due Respect (11/4), Superior Council (10/3), Doomsday (8/1), Concert Boy (10/1), Ignac Lamar (10/1), Unthinkable (16/1)

UNTHINKABLE ran her best race for about a year when second at Beverley 11 days ago and looks ready to exploit a mark that has tumbled in that time. Due Respect responded well to this headgear when a game winner at Redcar and rates the main threat ahead of the in-form Dumfries.
