The Northernlights (5/2), Quian (9/2), Prince Of Perth (5/1), Catboy (9/1), Mister Moodles (10/1), National Question (11/1), March Wind (12/1), Flashthelights (14/1), Minella Youngy (18/1), Nakassama (22/1), Balcomie Breeze (25/1), The Roc Hopper (33/1), Something Golden (33/1), Garrick Painter (80/1)

This is wide open so it is worth siding with PRINCE OF PERTH to take a sizeable step forward now he goes into handicaps with his stamina drawn out more and get off the mark. The Northernlights should also benefit from stepping up in trip and heads the list of dangers with Quian, Balcomie Breeze and Catboy all in the picture too.
