Way Out West (5/4), Pointed And Sharp (3/1), Malangen (7/1), Mr Dorrell Sage (17/2), Mouseinthehouse (10/1), Mead Vale (11/1), Templier (28/1)

WAY OUT WEST was a facile 23L winner last week, and has a great opportunity to follow up under a penalty, so is hard to ignore. Pointed And Sharp wasn't one to trust over hurdles, but appears a reformed character of late, and is respected in his hat-trick bid, and is the main danger, ahead of Malangen.
