Half Dozen (11/10), Amelia's Dance (9/2), Saligo Bay (11/2), Give Me A Cuddle (7/1), Sergeant (12/1), Cup Of Coffee (25/1), Perfect Myth (25/1), The Rain King (28/1), River Bray (40/1), Across The Line (40/1), Toronto (50/1)

Verdict

HALF DOZEN came clear for a cosy victory on his handicap debut at Hereford last week, responding well to the fitting of a tongue tie. He can follow up under a penalty. Doncaster-winner Give Me A Cuddle is an obvious danger, while Saligo Bay continues in form and could take a hand.
