Life On The Rocks (10/3), Marioento (7/2), Bashful (6/1), Waistcoat (10/1), Freddy Robinson (11/1), Bulldog Spirit (11/1), Book Of Life (11/1), Aim For The Moon (12/1), Annexation (16/1), Destinado (22/1), Monteria (25/1), Kalikapour (28/1), Muhib (33/1), Quick Away (33/1), Whatacracker (40/1), Rock Armour (40/1), Stoic Syd (40/1), Bizarre Law (50/1), Arctic Fox (66/1)

Lots with chances but the vote goes to MARIOENTO who took his form up a notch when getting off the mark at Wolverhampton last month and looks open to further progress now he steps up further in trip. Life On The Rocks is weighted to go well and could emerge as the chief threat to George Boughey's lightly-raced son of Farhh, with Waistcoat, Bulldog Spirit, Aim For The Moon and Bashful all in the picture too in this very open handicap.
