Game Point (11/10), Chasing Blues (11/4), Highland Realm (7/2), Penny Express (4/1), Texas Red (8/1), Drumconnor Hill (10/1), Among The Pines (33/1), Megaball (150/1), Owl's Delight (200/1), Plus Or Minus (250/1), Finjimk (300/1), Pinkarizon (300/1), Betterluckthistime (300/1), Blue Nude (300/1), Colwyn Bay (300/1), Plastic Paddy (300/1)

Only a handful of these make any serious appeal, with GAME POINT selected to build on a promising start in this sphere with further improvement on the cards. Penny Express had had plenty of tries to get off the mark and Gordon Elliott's 6-y-o may emerge as the selection's nearest pursuer, while Highland Realm made a low-key start over hurdles recently but warrants considerable respect given connections.
