Smiling Jessica (13/8), Cruising Bye (6/1), King Spirit (8/1), Mercers Court (10/1), Royale Django (12/1), Ready Token (12/1), What A Laugh (12/1), Cinevator (14/1), Mr Satco (16/1), Roparta Avenue (16/1), Spock (40/1), The Kvilleken (50/1), Brandy And Red (66/1)

What A Laugh was a decisive winner at Stratford recently and has to command serious respect despite carrying a penalty now. King Spirit was 6L down in second that day and should go well again while money arriving for Irish raider Smiling Jessica would draw the eye on second start for new connections now back over fences. Similarly, Richard Johnson stays faithful to Mr Satco, so he is worth monitoring. The vote is with CRUISING BYE though, who was second over C&D recently off a short break and can get off the mark for this yard with new blinkers on here.
