Lorelina (15/8), Tor (3/1), Tomahawk Kid (6/1), Roar (6/1), Envoy (7/1), Gabrial's King (7/1), Tawdeea (17/2), Corton Lad (20/1), Visitant (25/1)

ENVOY returned to form with a fine effort at Windsor last time, staying on gamely to get up and given that he's less exposed than most, he could be hard to beat here. Corton Lad and Gabrial's King are both well-handicapped on old form and shouldn't be dismissed.
