Nikgarde (13/8), Basildon (5/2), Malystic (9/2), Room At The Top (8/1), Tonicngin (8/1), Dont Tell The Wife (11/1), Hurricane Hugo (22/1), Arcanja (25/1), Show Promise (33/1), Zanevsky (80/1)

Having been beaten just a neck by Basildon on debut over C&D NIKGARDE is expected to turn the tables now with his rival saddling a 5lb penalty and that piece of form could prove key given it came on this surface. Of the newcomers Tonicngin and Room At The Top appeal the most and market support for either would boost confidence.
