Tidal Storm (3/1), Him Malaya (7/2), R S Ambush (9/2), Double Click (5/1), Escobedo (7/1), Ballymagee (10/1), Hunters Song (12/1), Angel's Dream (16/1), Miss Marette (18/1), Daany (28/1)

This can go the way of R S AMBUSH, who took a significant step forward when runner-up on first start for Dr Richard Newland at Worcester 6 weeks ago and with further improvement anticipated now handicapping, he can go a place better at the expense of Him Malaya, who could well leave his reappearance effort behind for Paul Nicholls. Escobedo and Tidal Storm can fight out third spot.
