Zoulu Chief (1/1), Woodhay Wonder (5/1), Midnite Runner (12/1), Beenham (14/1), Dubai Hills (18/1), Drama (20/1), Rich Glory (20/1), Cuban Slide (20/1), Lieutenant Rascal (22/1), Invincible Aura (22/1), Commander Crouch (25/1), Habrdi (25/1), Elderflower (28/1), Grey Gray (50/1), Great Acclaim (80/1), Alfa Moonstone (100/1), Darroch (100/1), Blenheim Star (150/1), Majorelle Blue (200/1), Priscilla's Joy (250/1), Yeulan (250/1), Caradonna (250/1)
ZOULU CHIEF holds the clear edge on the form of his striking York nursery win so looks very much the way to go in this valuable event. Michael Dods's improving Midnite Runner could emerge as the chief threat if, as expected, going on again from his Thirsk novice success. Woodhay Wonder is another with the form to have a say on the back of his win on the July course here, with Invincible Aura completing the shortlist.
