Monbeg Legend (1/5), Old Harry Rocks (10/3), What Happens Now (4/1), Whatzdjazz (4/1), Black Anthem (10/1), Minella Voucher (33/1), Western Dream (100/1)

MONBEG LEGEND has clearly had his issues, with a two year absence in between starts but he looked a useful prospect at Southwell and if building on that, can win this with something in hand. Old Harry Rocks is doing little wrong but may not have the same scope as the selection. Whatsdjazz will need to tidy her jumping up a bit and needs the rain to keep off, but has chances getting a bit of weight.
