Sleeping Lion (6/5), Bajan Gold (4/1), What A Welcome (13/2), Now Children (13/2), Dark Pearl (8/1), Star Of Southwold (9/1), Koeman (10/1), Noble Gift (12/1), Fast Dancer (16/1), Ravenous (20/1)

Verdict

WHAT A WELCOME arrives here looking for his sixth straight win and there were signs he was still improving when a winner at Windsor last month. Sleeping Lion is an obvious danger if taking up this engagement in a hat-trick bid and Koeman is another that is an interesting runner having shaped as a if a return to form was imminent last time.
