Bbold (5/2), Airtothethrone (4/1), Jessie Lightfoot (6/1), Kingsmill Gin (8/1), Head And Heart (9/1), Flemen's Tipple (11/1), Grove Road (11/1), Shortcross Storm (11/1), Unblinking (12/1)

AIRTOTHETHRONE disappointed at Chepstow last time but he's back on his last winning mark so could be the answer with his yard in good form. Shortcross Storm hinted at a return to form from a long way out of the handicap at Fakenham on his return so is respected, with Jessie Lightfoot another to consider.
