Muscika (15/8), Mabs Cross (7/2), Majorette (4/1), Angel's Acclaim (11/2), World Power (7/1), Alfonso Manana (7/1), Granny Roz (12/1), Princess Nearco (20/1), Vivardia (33/1), Suited (33/1), Whisper A Word (66/1), Nonnie And Norny (250/1)

There may be a race within Alfonso Manana at some point and he does deserve a change of fortune. He does, however, only set a modest standard to aim for and the likes of Majorette and Granny Roz have a touch more scope for improvement. However, ANGEL'S ACCLAIM also appeals as one that can step up to the plate at this level and, given that her yard won this last year, she looks to be following a tired and trusted path.
