Firefright (2/1), Mont Kiara (5/1), Moonraker (11/2), Ice Lord (13/2), Love Oasis (13/2), Clear Spring (9/1), Zamjar (16/1), Swiss Cross (18/1), Captain Lars (40/1)

Verdict

Clear Spring appears to have dropped to a mark from which he can be competitive nowadays and his latest run gives him an each-way shout in this. Mont Kiara reserves his best for Newmarket and cannot be overlooked despite his recent form. Zamjar has claims on the form of his Chester victory and Love Oasis takes on her toughest task to date. Ice Lord has ruined his chances by pulling too hard, but his effort here in May gives him an obvious chance. FIREFRIGHT was such an easy winner last time that it is unlikely a 6lb rise will halt his progress. His previous win has always shown him to be potentially well treated and now that connections have found the key to him, then more wins can come his way.
  1. Firefright
