One For Rosie (8/11), First Account (9/4), Captain Zebo (9/2), Emissaire (40/1), Jack Riddell (250/1)

An interesting contest where FIRST ACCOUNT looks to have the scope to improve on his debut and come good this time, with the stable in cracking form. One For Rosie looks to be his chief rival, and is not taken on lightly, but he had 6lb to concede to the selection. Captain Zebo is respected, while Emissaire should be capable of improvement and is not written off.
