13/8
Back-to-back winner at Doncaster/C&D last summer. Shaped better than bare result all 3 starts this season and clearly on a handy mark if everything drops right with yard in good order.

5/1
Veteran who capitalised on a career-low mark in good style under this rider at Ripon last month. Bit to free for his own good at Beverley since but makes more appeal than most here.

11/1
Narrow winner at Leicester last month, settling better under a more patient ride. Unsuited by slow pace at Hamilton since so probably still in form.

Didn't kick on as expected in handicaps last season and little encouragement both starts this campaign.

20/1
Back-to-back all-weather winner in November. Continues to hamper himself out of the stalls, however, and last 2 starts suggests he's gone off the boil.
