Highland Bells (11/4), Empress Alma (11/4), Northern Sonas (3/1), T Or Coffey (4/1), Fine Print (4/1), Gregorina (9/2), Preparations (13/2), Lightning Legs (12/1), Maxwell Smart (33/1)

A tight-knit handicap in which EMPRESS ALMA edges the vote on the back of her good Galway fifth when set a lot to do. Hamilton scorer Gregorina heads the list of dangers, although in-form trio Highland Bells, Northern Sonas and Fine Print all need factoring in too.
