Chart Topper (4/11), Queensbury Boy (5/2), The Jukebox Kid (3/1), Gale Mahler (9/1), Herja (33/1)

QUEENSBURY BOY and Chart Topper are the pair that make most appeal. The latter has clocked some strong timefigures, notably when second in a Grade 2 at Kelso on most recent outing, but the former has more scope to improve further as a hurdler given his smart bumper form, which swings the vote narrowly in his favour.
