Petite Ganache (6/5), Aquarian (11/2), Eager To Know (6/1), Samtu (6/1), Maureen's Star (11/1), Louloumills (12/1), Roll Of Thunder (14/1), News For Pascal (16/1)

Verdict

Most of these have question marks and doubts hanging over them and it may be best to focus on the two chasing debutantes. PETITE GANACHE is from a stable that have had a fine season and it may pay to forgive him his below-par effort last time and judge him on his Newcastle win. Aquarian is of much the same ilk with one decent hurdles win to his name before running below that level in subsequent starts but a try over fences may kick start him again. Samtu shouldn’t be written off despite a poor run last time if he is over his crashing Musselburgh fall; his debut win there if repeated would put him right in the mix here.
