Blu Cavalier (6/4), Golden Sunrise (2/1), Samburu Shujaa (5/2), Mount Rushmoore (8/1), Farmer Boy (16/1), Drama King (33/1), Tango du Roy (66/1), Alminar (100/1), Igougo (100/1), Hally's Kitchen (150/1), Lapford Lad (150/1), Willie Mclovin (200/1), Menapian (250/1), Indigo Stamp (250/1)

Quite a few of these will be better once they have a handicap mark to operate off and BLU CAVALIER is taken to build on his good comeback run last time out in the hope that he’s able to overcome his training problems. Golden Sunrise ought to be able to do better than he has so far but does need to improve on his recent effort and the biggest danger looks to lie with Samburu Shujaa whose recent form has already been boosted although a greater test of stamina looks as though it could prove beneficial. Mount Rushmoore is the most interesting hurdling debutante and he should run well on his first start over obstacles.
