Take To Heart (1/1), Gettysburg Address (7/4), Havana Beat (3/1), Forever My Friend (4/1), Persistantprincess (16/1), Pull The Trigger (25/1), Backoftherock (33/1), Rubys Cube (50/1), Sahalin (50/1)

TAKE TO HEART is unexposed and there should be more to come having shown a good attitude to win at Worcester earlier in the month. Havana Beat looks like an interesting recruit to the jumping game and shouldn't be dismissed. Dr Richard Newland does well with his new recruits and Gettysburg Address is worth a market check on yard debut.
