Jack Ryan (11/4), Divine Connection (7/2), Island Nation (5/1), Golden Fountain (7/1), Captain Corelli (8/1), Van Dijk (8/1), Take That (8/1), Decora (10/1), Jungle Book (12/1), Kilig (14/1), Astroman (33/1), Ben Lilly (66/1)

DIVINE CONNECTION already has winning course form to her name from a selling event in February and following a good effort at Kempton last time she can record her first victory in handicaps by taking this three-year-old only event. The selection can get the better of Jungle Book who is making his first start since joining his current trainer and has run well off this mark in the past while third place can go to Captain Correlli who is tackling this distance for the first time.
