The Cistercian (13/8), Legendary Luke (2/1), Mr Finch (11/4), Contacto (15/2), Manigod (12/1), For Old Times Sake (50/1), Western George (66/1), Herbygoesbananas (66/1), Roi Lion (80/1), Monansunu (200/1), Le Flying Ferret (400/1), Pacman (400/1)

Having won at Leicester last month, THE CISTERCIAN cemented an excellent start for his new yard when third under a penalty at Haydock. That is the best form on offer here so he'll take some stopping, for all Legendary Luke and Contacto are potential improvers. Point-recruit Mr Finch also needs considering.
