Celestial Path (9/4), Treasure The Ridge (4/1), Too Many Diamonds (9/2), Alexander The Grey (6/1), Marmont (15/2), Iniesta (8/1), Billy My Boy (9/1), Sureness (12/1), Maximus Maridius (14/1), Scorpion Star (20/1), Collodi (25/1), Frozen Over (25/1), Karl Marx (25/1), Paladin (25/1), Honey Pound (33/1)

Billy My Boy, Sureness and Frozen Over could be vying for the lead here in the early stages of the contest. Celestial Path, ran better last day in Worcester 2m novice hurdle on good ground and Treasure The Ridge, second of eight last day here over extended 2m2f handicap hurdle, sit well on the shortlist, while, TOO MANY DIAMONDS, four wins for current yard, is the selection.
