Groom D'Oudairies (4/5), Don Alvaro (9/2), Rubys Reward (9/2), Major Robinson (5/1), Justshortofabubble (16/1), Gaelic Thunder (16/1), Akkapenko (20/1), Miss Harriett (22/1), Clarendon Cross (33/1), Minella Voucher (33/1), Foillmore (100/1)

This isn't a particularly strong race and those at the head of the weights are of most interest, with the vote going to GROOM D'OUDAIRIES, who shaped well on handicap debut in a much deeper race at Ludlow last week, Don Alvaro has also ran with encouragement in handicaps, whilst Major Robinson should be capable of making the frame.
