Ainsi Va La Vie (11/10), Martello Park (11/4), Shimmer's Rock (3/1), Reine Des Pres (12/1), Monastery (20/1), Juliespaddockwalk (33/1), Famous Day (66/1), Temple Hall Flyer (66/1), Bee A Beneficiary (100/1), Dollydeschamps (100/1), Charlotte Wells (100/1), Askcalie (100/1), Georgia Grace (100/1), Tillys Delight (100/1), Night Muse (100/1)

Could have plenty of takers for the early lead here with Martello Park, Famous Day and Monastery all able to take the field along. AINSI VA LA VIE under Paul Townend could possibly track the early pace and be in the ideal position to make his winning move. Shimmer's Rock will be looking to improve on a promising debut and last time out beaten favourite Martello Park can collect the minor honours.
