Shantou Rock (6/4), Cyrname (7/4), Tommy Silver (9/4), The Unit (3/1), Kostaquarta (100/1)
SHANTOU ROCK may have gone off too fast at Warwick and he paid the price late on but Dan Skelton's charge is a particularly bold jumper for a novice and he could really put the pressure on his rivals from the front here and this flat track should play to his strengths. Tommy Silver is Sam Twiston-Davies' choice of the Nicholls duo and he could prove the toughest rival for the selection. A flat 2m may not be ideal for The Unit but if Shantou Rock goes too hard again he could be the one to pick up the pieces.
