Solid Man (11/8), Odds On Oli (7/2), Mimram (6/1), Miniature Daffodil (7/1), Laytown (10/1), Billy Star (12/1), Sunhill Lad (14/1), Jazzy Girl (14/1), Free Talkin (16/1)

A modest opening race, and far from the kind of contest where anything would appear as potentially progressive. That said; it's early days for a few of these horses, and it's quite possible that they'll begin to find their respective levels now tackling low grade handicaps. Both Laytown and Odds On Oli have shown enough to suggest they'll pick up a small race sooner or later, but with stamina on the side of her dam, we'll opt for MIMRAM, who posted a respectable effort over a slightly shorter trip at Chelmsford (7f) on her return from a wind operation latest.
