Helios Allen (15/8), Garincha (10/3), Caswell Bay (11/2), Straight Swap (8/1), Voyage De Retour (12/1), Jaunty Viking (14/1), Akkapenko (14/1), Kenny George (20/1), Lydford Lad (25/1), Point Of Principle (50/1), Affoburg (66/1)

HELIOS ALLEN arrives on the up and has already shown that he's well suited to the demands of this track, so he's a confident choice to resume winning ways despite the presence of Garincha, who swept through to score convincingly at Wetherby 11 days ago. Jaunty Viking also warrants respect.
