Magic Saint (11/8), Not That Fuisse (11/4), Fix At All (5/1), Solomon Grey (11/2), Paloma Blue (9/1), Oistrakh Le Noir (28/1), Ballotin (33/1), Count Simon (40/1), Funky Sensation (50/1), Dickie Diver (66/1), St Barts (66/1), What A Moment (100/1), Dogon (100/1)

MAGIC SAINT is best not judged on his latest effort at Aintree and he'd previously been quite impressive at Wincanton, so he's worth a chance to resume winning ways. Paloma Blue and Not That Fuisse could pose the main threats.
