Letterston Lily (7/2), Soldier's Leap (4/1), Stoner's Choice (11/2), Heard That (7/1), Karton Plein (7/1), Gentleman Bill (10/1), Timefortom (10/1), Lets Mingle (10/1), Buy Some Time (11/1), So Many Roads (12/1)
SOLDIER'S LEAP's latest Stratford second was a career best and he's taken to build on that and strike for Tom Ellis. So Many Roads was fourth in a competitive race at Hexham last time and could go well again. Olly Murphy's good recent record in this also earns Heard That and Karton Plein a place on the shortlist.
