Eureu Du Boulay (11/4), Florrie Knox (7/2), Glance Back (6/1), Night Of Sin (6/1), Belargus (8/1), Knocknamona (8/1), Prairie Town (16/1), Truckers Highway (16/1), Virnon (25/1)

After hosing up at Southwell, Glance Back is likely to prove a popular choice for punters. However, he must defy an 8lb rise for that success and has never won off a mark as high this before. He therefore has a bit to prove, as does Florrie Knox who enters calculations dropped in grade to a more realistic level, though he will need to improve his jumping if he is to feature. The unexposed Night Of Sin was a C&D winner last season. He could have further progress in him as he makes his seasonal comeback. A chance is taken on PRAIRIE TOWN though whose recent fourth at Sandown is respectable handicap form and reads well in this weaker race on paper.
