Druid's Folly (4/1), Starplex (9/2), Black Ivory (6/1), Stick To The Plan (13/2), Arabian Oasis (8/1), Twist On Ginge (10/1), Areema (12/1), Mr Globetrotter (12/1), The Jazz Singer (14/1), Buckled (14/1), Katalystic (14/1)

Arabian Oasis will be rightly popular despite the slight step up in class from Market Rasen. He's unpenalised, and his rider can claim his full 5lb allowance today so he's clearly well in. At the other end of the scale, STARPLEX has been upped 10lb for his Newcastle victory, but he will also encounter similar ground conditions today and is an unexposed sort in handicaps and now represents a most talented dual purpose trainer. Will he be the horse to send Brian Harding out a day earlier than expected with a winner?
