Espalion (7/4), High Noon (15/2), The Vollan (8/1), Adherence (17/2), Cold As Ice (10/1), Tanacando (11/1), Flints Legacy (12/1), Iron Horse (16/1), Realta Dawn (16/1), Dalaman (16/1), Harry Haze (25/1), Gaelic Poet (25/1), Mr Fenton (25/1), Pleney (33/1), Jonnigraig (33/1), Comeonthebull (33/1), Floresco (33/1), Wolftrap (50/1)
The Vollan may not have the most promising string of form figures, but his latest effort produced a much better effort on his handicap debut and the extra 3f here are a positive. However, he faces an improved horse in ESPALION who hacked up here earlier in the month. He appeared to have far more in hand than a 7lb rise implies and it was at least a stone better than anything he had done previously. Adherence looked fortunate to win at Taunton but nevertheless figures high on the shortlist as do Mr Fenton and Cold As Ice.
