Individualism (13/8), Baltic (13/8), Miller Spirit (10/3), Assail (4/1), King Of The Plains (4/1), Waxing Gibbous (6/1), Moel Arthur (12/1), Saratoga Gold (22/1), Dornoch Castle (150/1)

A case can be made for a few of these but it's hard to side against Harry Charlton's fast improving Frankel colt BALTIC who is taken to make light of an 8 lb weights rise and extend his winning sequence to five. Assail shaped well after an absence when fourth at Kempton and is next on the list, although both Waxing Gibbous and Individualism command plenty of respect too in this intriguing handicap.
