Sammylou (3/1), Label Des Obeaux (7/2), De Rasher Counter (5/1), Prabeni (11/2), Laugharne (13/2), Sunset Showdown (7/1), Boyhood (18/1), Oscarsman (25/1)

Verdict

A real mish mash and it could be worth chancing LABEL DES OBEAUX. Useful over hurdles in his younger days, he subsequently made up into a decent staying chaser and before the shutdown ran a couple of good races in this sphere after a long time off. He lurks on a very tempting mark. Sammylou has fewer question marks over him than most and is a player up in class. Boyhood completes the shortlist.
