Quest For Fun (11/4), Snash (10/3), Call Me Ginger (4/1), Aberama Gold (9/2), Summer Sands (6/1), Jordan Electrics (15/2), Bernardo O'Reilly (17/2), Streamline (10/1), Toussarok (14/1), Black Friday (20/1), Never Dark (33/1), Pockley (50/1)

The form of the Thirsk handicap in which QUEST FOR FUN opened his account last month is strong, and he followed up over this C&D a fortnight ago when overhauling Aberama Gold close home after conceding first run. There should be more to come from this 4-y-o and he is taken to complete the hat-trick. Call Me Ginger, Summer Sands and Black Friday were also adrift that day and Call Me Ginger could be the one to pose the greatest threat this time. Snash is also in with a shout.
