Bonttay (6/4), Autumn Return (7/2), Jane Du Berlais (5/1), Walk Of No Shame (15/2), Never No Trouble (12/1), Midnight Shuffle (16/1), Dime Store Cowgirl (16/1), Notnowlinda (28/1), Lacila Blue (50/1)

The one who makes most appeal is BONTTAY, a triple bumper winner, who was left with too much ground to make up in a steadily-run event at Market Rasen 13 days ago and now goes handicapping in first-time cheekpieces from a potentially lenient mark. Jane du Berlais got the better of the selection at Lingfield back in December and still has potential despite failing to advance her form at Wetherby last time. Autumn Return merits respect, also.
