Shabeeb (9/2), Royal Line (5/1), Lorelina (6/1), Shabbah (7/1), Native Fighter (15/2), Golden Wolf (8/1), Fire Fighting (12/1), C'Est No Mour (12/1), Fearsome (16/1), Whinging Willie (16/1), Berrahri (20/1), Faithful Mount (50/1), Ardamir (66/1)

C'EST NO MOUR has proven how effective he is at the course and can be forgiven his run when last seen. A useful claimer taking off 5lb should help Lorelina in a bid for another course success but Golden Wolf still looks well-handicapped here and could be the main danger.
