Djelo (15/8), Iceo (3/1), Hardy Du Seuil (4/1), Lightly Squeeze (6/1), In The Air (7/1), Dr T J Eckleburg (12/1), Imphal (22/1), Palladium (25/1), Band of Outlaws (28/1), Poseidon (40/1), Tiger Voice (66/1)

DJELO was turned over at odds on when last seen but, prior to that, he'd been very impressive on his British debut, so he's worth another chance. Lightly Squeeze bolted up on his first start back with Harry Fry at Kempton last time and he's an obvious danger, while Dr T J Eckleburg is no forlorn hope in a race that should be run to suit.
