Sanam (4/6), Trouble And Strife (4/1), Ava The Braver (7/1), Maraakib (10/1), What A Party (10/1), Wally's Wisdom (12/1), Ginger Lady (14/1), Diana Lady (14/1), Red Douglas (16/1), Flat Out Eric (20/1), Mount Cleshar (25/1), Seventii (25/1), Woofie (25/1), Jumbo Vee (50/1)

Ginger Lady and Mount Cleshar are lightly raced and open to improvement at this trip, but this looks likely to be fought out between Sanam and TROUBLE AND STRIFE. The former is on a hat-trick and a 3lb rise for his latest success should be manageable. However, a tendency to hang under pressure may see the concession of 13lb to the selection a tough ask. Sir Mark Prescott's three-year-olds have been mopping up low grade handicaps in the past few days and this filly caught the eye on last week's return when shaping as though she would improve for the run and this longer trip.
