Hosaamm (9/2), Fostered Phil (9/2), Ravenscraig Castle (5/1), Just Call Me Lucy (11/2), Thereisnodoubt (11/2), Ozzy Cosmo (6/1), Maple (13/2), Balally Park (17/2), Dance Thief (11/1), Sao Carlos (25/1), Dee's Getaway (33/1), Velvet Vulcan (50/1)

A strong form case can be made for handicap debutant HOSAAMM but he remains a risky betting proposition having refused to race last time. Dance Thief ran a cracker to finish a close second in this race last year and should go well again off the same mark, while Maple improved to open his account on final start last season and could feature if ready to roll on reappearance. Veteran C&D winner Thereisnodoubt would be feared if the ground becomes testing.
