Investment Manager (2/1), Imperial Joe (16/5), Begin The Luck (7/2), Petticoat Lucy (6/1), Our Bill's Aunt (7/1), Across The Line (17/2), Scrumpy Boy (20/1), Galante De Romay (33/1)

Verdict

BEGIN THE LUCK hasn't looked back since sent over fences and a 7 lb rise for his emphatic Exeter success doesn't look sufficient to prevent him from completing a quick hat-trick. Exeter-scorer Investment Manager is rated next best ahead of C&D winner Imperial Joe and chasing-newcomer Our Bill's Aunt.
