Vocal Duke (11/4), El Jefe (7/2), Rhebus Road (4/1), Peckinpah (5/1), Glutnforpunishment (6/1), Gavin (6/1), Astroman (8/1), Dinsdale (8/1), Al Kherb (11/1), Letsbe Avenue (20/1), Millies Mite (25/1), Jack Ryan (50/1), Risky Business (50/1)

Verdict

EL JEFE rates a serious player having finally got off the mark at Sedgefield last time, and an 8-lb rise should be manageable given he had something in hand that day. Peckinpah is another one to consider, along with Al Kherb.
