The Cox Express (5/2), Try The Money (5/1), Robinsville (15/2), Proper Twelve (8/1), Safe Destination (9/1), Whynotnowroy (11/1), Tribesmans Glory (11/1), School For Scandal (12/1), Rebel Intentions (14/1), Up For Appeal (20/1), Rock On Rita (25/1), Totowolfe (33/1), Dindin (33/1), Firefly Lane (33/1), Master Mikey Dee (33/1), Spotty Dog (100/1)

Not as competitive as the numbers suggest and THE COX EXPRESS looks the way to go on the back of his promising chasing debut second at Exeter (form working out well). Tribesman Glory arrives at the top of his game and rates a big threat though, with Robinsville, Safe Destination and Proper Twelve also in the mix.
