Johnjay (11/8), Darvel (5/1), Dream Pirate (6/1), Marsh Benham (8/1), Grey Fox (10/1), Landlordtothestars (12/1), Gavi Di Gavi (14/1), Serious Look (22/1), Amathus (33/1), Unsung Hero (33/1), Baikal (50/1), Bella Veneta (66/1), French Martini (80/1)

DARVEL returned from 6 months off at the top of his game when scoring in decisive fashion at Bath 4 weeks ago and, although his record last season suggests he may not arrive in the same mood, Patrick Chamings' 6-y-o gets the nod ahead of Johnjay, who made a satisfactory return to action when third in a different race on that same card. Gavi di Gavi and Landlordtothestars can fight out third.
