Just A Dime (10/3), Green Book (4/1), Sabrina (5/1), Flemenstide (11/2), Bells Of Peterboro (6/1), Lynwood Gold (8/1), Flight Deck (10/1), Kateson (14/1), West To The Bridge (20/1), Bobo Mac (20/1), Us And Them (150/1)

A very competitive handicap. WEST TO THE BRIDGE has the tongue tie he wore when gaining all 4 wins last season refitted for the first time the term and might be worth chancing to bounce back to form having dipped to 3 lb below his last successful mark. Last year's winner Bells of Peterboro and the returning Green Book head the many possible dangers.
