Chives (7/2), Debden Bank (4/1), Seaborough (9/2), Love Actually (9/2), Jaunty Soria (11/2), Rare Clouds (7/1), Sinister Minister (22/1), Russian Service (28/1), Montaqem (66/1), Lily's Gem (100/1)

Verdict

CHIVES has a year-long absence to overcome but he could hardly be in better hands and, assuming all is well with him, his mark is a lenient one. Jaunty Soria is a solid alternative, with Love Actually also worth a second look back from time off the track.

  1. CHIVES
