Neville's Cross (11/10), Shah An Shah (9/2), Premier D'troice (9/2), Storm Home (11/2), Dadsintrouble (16/1), Fontley House (22/1), Dawn Raider (80/1)

Verdict

NEVILLE'S CROSS showed much improved form in line with the longer trip/switch to handicaps when scoring on return at Uttoxeter last month, winning with plenty in hand. There is more to come from Tom Lacey's 5-y-o and he can defy a 9 lb higher mark. Premier D'troice and Storm Home both arrive in good form also and can give the selection most to think about.
