Graystown (7/2), John Williams (4/1), Carried (9/2), Pc Dixon (9/2), Stormbay Bomber (7/1), Oldtimer (15/2), Izzy's Champion (9/1), Painters Lad (25/1), Pierlow (33/1)

Not many arrive at the top of their form, and CARRIED, who hasn't been with Roy Watson long, can win having run well on the flat last time. Izzy's Champion ran well over C&D on his chase bow, and had excuses next time, so could bounce back after a breathing operation. John Williams ran badly last time, but has won four times here, so it would be no surprise to see him bounce back in an uncompetitive race.
