Twojayslad (4/1), Dark Flame (9/2), Lord Scoundrel (11/2), Oh Land Abloom (6/1), Rathlin Rose (15/2), Nightline (8/1), Horatio Hornblower (17/2), Raven's Tower (14/1), Silver Tassie (14/1), Vice Et Vertu (20/1), Chasma (50/1)

NIGHTLINE appeared to be holding the aces when parting company with Paul O'Brien at the final fence at Huntingdon last month and, still feasibly treated despite a 3 lb rise, he is taken to atone for that mishap here. Dark Flame resumes on a mark 4 lb lower than that off which he was fifth at Sandown on his final start of last season and is second choice ahead of Twojayslad.
