Hediddodinthe (11/10), Bal De Rio (7/4), Cray (10/1), Italian Riviera (14/1), Archibelle (16/1), Caged Lightning (25/1), Chebsey Beau (28/1), Pantomime (33/1)
Hediddodinthe romped home by 18L over C&D last time out, he's an obvious starting point now, but he must compete from 16lb higher in the ratings and might just find that beyond him. Archibelle also scored here when last spotted and has to be respected. Italian Riviera is capable but struggles to win and so BAL DE RIO, a C&D winner in March, can defy a mere 7lb rise to double up.
