Boy Douglas (5/2), Epidavros (10/3), Empirestateofmind (7/2), Kelpie Grey (4/1), On The River (7/1), Redarna (10/1), Two B Tanned (11/1), Duke's Command (12/1), Zryan (25/1), Cavalry Call (100/1)

ON THE RIVER looked unlucky when hampered late on at Ripon with running left and remains well treated based on his Carlisle win. Boy Douglas brings strong course form with two consecutive Ayr wins and should appreciate returning to 1m in his hat-trick bid. Epidavros has been consistent and shaped better than the result last time.
