Line Of Descent (11/4), We'll Go Again (3/1), Sword Of Fate (4/1), Check My Pulse (15/2), Restandbethankful (9/1), War At Sea (11/1), Ardera Cross (14/1), Kicksaftersix (18/1), Tico Times (20/1), Living's Boy An Co (28/1), Secrets De Famille (50/1)

SWORD OF FATE is going through a good spell at present and might be able to get his head back in front at a venue where he's tasted success before. Line of Descent is another who arrives on the back of a string of solid efforts lately and is second choice ahead of We'll Go Again, who made an encouraging start to his chase career when runner-up at Market Rasen last month.
