Shareef Star (5/4), El Borracho (11/4), Mahler's Promise (9/2), Sarasota Star (7/1), Rock On Tiger (15/2), Nikap (12/1)

It's fair to say that things haven't gone to plan for MAHLER'S PROMISE subsequent to his Newbury maiden hurdle success, but he took a step back in the right direction at Kempton last month and is of strong interest now switched to fences off a reduced mark. Shareef Star, who is 2-2 in this sphere, is the obvious danger, but chase debutants Sarasota Star and El Borracho also merit respect.
