Corncrake (5/6), Al Mureib (9/4), Felix (5/1), Aspire Tower (8/1), Sophosc (12/1)

CORNCRAKE is progressing at a rate of knots and seeks the hat-trick under a 6lb penalty (5lb 'well-in') for Saturday's fluent Nottingham Classified Stakes win. He has struck up a positive relationship with the excellent Rossa Ryan (2-2 aboard) and ought to prove very tough to beat in a race where plenty of the others have questions to answer (commonly in relation to this 1m2f trip). The main threat could come from the Sir Michael Stoute-trained Felix who was bogged down in testing conditions at Haydock latest (Colm O'Donoghue is 3-8; 38% for Sir Michael Stoute).
