Tea Clipper (5/2), Mrs Milner (4/1), Golan Fortune (4/1), On The Blind Side (7/1), Dandy Dan (7/1), Debestyman (15/2), Dell' Arca (8/1), Weather Front (17/2), Good Man Pat (9/1), Who's My Jockey (9/1), Tobefair (14/1), Poker Play (28/1)
There should be more to come from TEA CLIPPER now stepping up to 3m and he can defy the handicapper again and make it 5 wins from only 6 starts. Dandy Dan has a slightly lower mark to work with back hurdling and rates a possible danger for a stable which continues in good form. On The Blind Side and the thriving Dell' Arca are others to consider in what looks a typically competitive renewal.
