Western Zephyr (11/8), Pembroke (2/1), Amrons Sage (9/2), Bubble Dubi (15/2), No Risk With Lou (14/1), Picks Lad (20/1), Gaye Legacy (20/1), Zero Tolerance (40/1), Mount South (125/1), Scarpered (150/1), State Of Honor (150/1), Black Tonic (250/1), Trudiemadlydeeply (300/1), Little Pi (300/1), Kalibrate (300/1), Chairman Fitz (300/1)

Plenty of depth to this novice with WESTERN ZEPHYR just about the most persuasive option on the back of a striking winning hurdles debut over C&D a month ago. Amrons Sage gets 6 lb from the previous scorers and he looks the main danger, though Pembroke is promising in his own right.
