Aristocracy (3/1), Ange Des Malberaux (4/1), Plantagenet (5/1), Simply Blessed (6/1), Toe To Toe (7/1), Present Trend (9/1), Howaboutnever (11/1), Court Baloo (12/1), Moscow Calling (12/1), Backoftherock (14/1), Apachee Prince (14/1), Ultimate Dream (20/1), Sgt Bull Berry (25/1), Sovinnie (25/1), Burgess View (25/1), Blackwell Synergy (33/1), Seymour Legend (33/1)

Lots of these are either out of form or on the downgrade. Moscow Calling catches the eye off a low mark for his good stable and would have a serious chance if able to reproduce a decent run at Musselburgh, but he is not consistent enough for betting purposes and the ones to concentrate on are Ange Des Malberaux, and ARISTOCRACY. The former has to cope with a weight rise and step up in trip after his win at Cartmel, but the selection is potentially well handicapped after showing glimpses of his old Flat ability on his three outings for his new stable. Plantagenet has prospects and looks best of the rest.
