Aniknam (2/1), Samtu (11/4), Duty Girl (3/1), Leopard (9/2), The Horsechesnut (15/2), Katy Royal (12/1), King Gypsy (14/1), Shocona's Joy (22/1), Boyfromnowhere (33/1), Betterlatethanneva (66/1)

Aniknam had a tough race when gamely landing some sizeable bets at Uttoxeter (2m7½f, heavy) on New Year's Eve and that experience has possibly left a negative mark. Thehorsechesnut is fitted with a visor on his return to Jennie Candlish so should be monitored for signs of market support in a weak race, along with the lightly raced King Gypsy. However, both Samtu (well-handicapped) and DUTY GIRL (an 18-race maiden) have went close over this C&D recently, with the latter-named of that pair showing improved form in four starts for Julia Brooke. Despite a token 3lb weights rise she could feasibly have her day in the limelight.
