Schrodinger's Cat (3/1), Ambishio (16/5), Champonie (7/2), Alvin (6/1), Old Is Gold (6/1), Proof (17/2), Kolkata Knight (9/1), One And Gone (12/1), Temple Of Athena (12/1), Inca Heights (20/1), Watcha Snoop (28/1), Exclamation (33/1), Wyle Cop (33/1), Henrythenate (50/1), Arlo's Girl (66/1)

Impressive Bath winner ALVIN is a sprinter on the up and may have enough in hand under a penalty to overcome a wide draw. The pace is likely to be strong and hat-trick seeking Champonie could be a serious danger if able to keep tabs early, while Kolkata Knight has to enter calculations on the form of his Wolverhampton second. Speedy One And Gone is another to note going around a bend for the first time on turf.
