Strolling Along (6/4), Aazza (15/8), Heather Honey (7/1), After Many Days (7/1), Izzy's Grey (7/1), Fine By Her (20/1)

STROLLING ALONG channelled his enthusiasm more efficiently fitted with a tongue tie when third on handicap debut and looks to have a big chance if he can do the same over this longer trip. Hat-trick seeking Aazza could be dangerous if allowed to dictate, while Heather Honey should not be underestimated on the back of her comfortable Newcastle success.
