Hey Pretty (3/1), Rince Deireanach (9/2), Danehill Quest (6/1), Point Zero (13/2), Golden Footsteps (10/1), Chaparral Dream (11/1), Villa Maria (11/1), So Enjoy (12/1), Dancing Lady (14/1), Stormy Tale (16/1), Groovy Jazz (16/1), Bonnington Lass (16/1)

SO ENJOY has already produced two big runs here and cheekpieces helped her to an improved effort last time. That leaves her looking well-handicapped and she is just preferred ahead of Hey Pretty who looks more straightforward than most in this. If running to current levels he will be in the mix, whilst Point Zero looks interesting on his handicap bow.

So Enjoy
