Al Salt (5/2), Marronnier (7/2), Tulfarris (5/1), Nicklaus (6/1), Plantadream (13/2), Grove Ferry (15/2), Brains (25/1), Queen Gamrah (28/1), Eagle Creek (40/1), Divine Messenger (200/1)

A minor event for horses with a current BHA rating no higher than 90 but AL SALT is one who could be better than that and he's taken to resume winning ways having shaped well in a Glorious Goodwood handicap last time. Marronnier was unlucky not to finish closer at Sandown and is another leading player along with last year's runner-up Tulfarris and Grove Ferry.
