Alcala (5/6), Bob And Co (1/1), Kelvingrove (10/1), Wizards Bridge (33/1), Kerisper (40/1)
This looks more than likely to be a Paul Nicholls 1-2 but which way round? ALCALA is taken to edge out stable companion Bob And Co having won nicely in heavy ground at Haydock last week. Bob And Co doesn't look the easiest ride but won at Bangor latest after being left a long way clear and has a very experienced rider on board. Wizards Bridge looks best of the remaining trio.
