Plouios (5/6), Monatomic (10/3), Speaker Connolly (5/1), Play At Midnight (8/1), Jack Wade (10/1), Murder Mile (33/1), Teddy's Acre (50/1), Mangan Julia (50/1), Randall's Aoibhinn (50/1), Lady Sherami (50/1), Just Another Lady (100/1)

Jack Wade returns from a ban imposed by the stewards following his latest run. This is not particularly competitive and he is the most interesting runner in this. Plouios looks a nice horse and he shaped well last time, but he is the type to do better over further and MONATOMIC may be worth an interest. The Gigginstown runner has not been unduly punished once his chance has gone in three races so far, but this looks easier and he can cap a fine week for connections.
