Call Me Legend (3/1), Diamatiste (3/1), Gillespie (3/1), Tzarmix (4/1), Bampton Star (13/2), Pipers Cross (7/1), Crossgales King (12/1), Braganza Bay (16/1), Looking For Larry (18/1)

CALL ME LEGEND leaves the impression he should have more to offer now stepping up in trip and might prove the answer to this opener. Gillespie is interesting making a quick switch to handicaps for Paul Nicholls. Diamatiste's good Exeter record earns him a place on the shortlist, while Tzarmix is one who arrives at the top of his game.
