Mcgarry (7/4), Edmond Dantes (10/3), Rocco Storm (7/2), Ritson (5/1), Chemical Warfare (13/2), Fourth Of July (10/1), Budarri (16/1), Six One Nine (18/1), Coolmoyne (28/1), Choix Des Armes (33/1), Roxyfet (50/1)

Already a dual winner this autumn, ROCCO STORM again ran well when runner-up to one potentially thrown-in at Sedgefield 5 weeks ago. Nicely on top of the remainder that day, he remains one to be positive about and gets the nod. Edmond Dantes looks a live threat under Brian Hughes, whilst chase-debutant McGarry and Fourth of July are others making the shortlist.
