First Angel (4/1), Copper Fox (4/1), Henri Le Bon (4/1), Blue Ribbon (11/2), George Bancroft (15/2), Lonimoss Bareliere (10/1), Foillmore (14/1), Fancy Stuff (14/1), Phoebus Lescribaa (16/1)

COPPER FOX arrives with a decent profile over hurdles and has been found a weak race starting out in this sphere. First Angel should come on for his return and is next best starting out for a new yard, with another chasing newcomer Fancy Stuff best of the others.
