Shimmy Jimmy (11/8), Rudi's Apple (5/2), Snapdragon (3/1), Bamako (8/1), Powerful Lady (8/1), Withoutfurtherado (11/1), Hugo's Girl (18/1), In The Minus (33/1)

SHIMMY JIMMY continued his theme of race-by-race progress and displayed a good attitude in the process when opening his account in a big-field Navan maiden 7 days ago. His rider takes off a handy 5 lb on nursery debut and all looks set fair for another big run. Top-weight Rudi's Apple rates the chief threat, whilst Powerful Lady likely has a bigger performance in her also.
