Elusiveness (13/8), Sweet Caryline (3/1), My Granny Lily (6/1), Nobody's Perfect (15/2), Jacksbar (8/1), Northern Symphonie (16/1), Arctic Stream (16/1), Reel Orange (20/1), Prairie Queen (25/1), English Willow (50/1), Lady Showtime (50/1), Countess Vicky (100/1)

Having showed much improved form when getting off the mark at the sixth time of asking, JACKSBAR may be able to follow up that victory if in the same sort of form 3 months on. The biggest threat may come from Sweet Caryline who is also lightly-raced and has proved she can mix it at this level. Nobody's Perfect showed some promise on her final qualifying run and despite not running up to form last time, she has a chance if she can bounce back.
