Chase A Fortune (1/1), Royal Mogul (6/5), Chapel Green (13/2), Thistlebuffs (10/1), Riggsby (12/1), Lights Are Green (25/1), Shantou's Temple (33/1), Steel My Thunder (33/1), Split The Bill (40/1), Allibaba (40/1), Libor Lad (50/1), Last Mission (100/1), Heeztheboy (100/1), Lay Down The Law (100/1)

CHASE A FORTUNE has made a positive start over hurdles, the form of his Catterick third working out particularly well, and the 7 lb he receives from penalised-winners Royal Mogul and Chapel Green may prove decisive.
