Dorking Lad (7/4), Courtland (4/1), Gortroe Joe (9/2), Gunsight Ridge (9/2), Now Look At Me (6/1), Sermando (8/1), Monarchofthegrange (8/1), Northern Princess (12/1), Sheriff Garrett (14/1), Perfect Predator (14/1), Irish Odyssey (16/1), Don't Ask (18/1), Pencreek (25/1), Fricka (25/1)

This step up in trip promises to suit COURTLAND, who made a winning handicap debut at Uttoxeter and a 6 lb rise looks manageable. Pencreek brings potential to the table now making the switch to handicap company and he is feared most ahead of the similarly unexposed Dorking Lad.
