Isla Kai (2/1), Eilean Dubh (4/1), Challet (5/1), Blenheim Boy (8/1), Blue For You (11/1), Scottish Summit (12/1), Young Fire (16/1), Garden Oasis (18/1), Tammani (20/1), Via Serendipity (25/1)
A tightly-knit handicap in which marginal preference is for ISLA KAI who can race off a mark 2 lb lower than when a gallant sixth in the Royal Hunt Cup and is taken to open his account for the season. Both Young Fire and Eilean Dubh were not seen to best effect at Haydock and Pontefract respectively on their most recent runs and can chase home Nigel Tinkler's 4-y-o in that order.
