Mickyh (6/5), Fanfaron Dino (9/2), Tara Iti (17/2), Filanderer (17/2), Ray's The One (17/2), Naturally High (10/1), Lookingdandy (11/1), Penna Rossa (11/1), Dazzling Dove (11/1), Privatory (12/1), Mistral Lady (14/1), Sir Rock (14/1), Bolberry Down (22/1), Green Or Black (25/1), Noah's Light (100/1)

Not so competitive as the numbers suggest and DAZZLING DOVE is taken to gain a deserved breakthrough success on the back of her good Southwell second. Plumpton runner-up Mickyh is next on the list while Fanfaron Dino is also weighted to have a say if back on his A-game.
