Lion of Mali (11/10), Chelio (5/1), Pretty Danielle (13/2), Eduardo Calderon (10/1), Circle Of Trust (12/1), Venetian Romance (16/1), Yachtsman (20/1), Horwich (20/1), Daretobedifferent (22/1), Great Success (22/1), Sprinting Speed (28/1), Castlekeely (33/1)
LION OF MALI may still be underestimated by his mark, and he can resume winning ways with Billy Loughnane taking over. Pretty Danielle ran her best race in similar company on return and should go close again, while Yachtsman won't be far away if translating his recent all-weather form to turf.
