Wonder Legend (5/2), Return To Dubai (9/2), Greatgadian (5/1), Mighty River (13/2), Crystal Delight (9/1), Benacre (9/1), Howth (10/1), Imperial Ace (14/1), Diamond Ranger (22/1), Paris Lights (28/1), Carolus Magnus (80/1)

IMPERIAL ACE is enjoying a good season but still features on an attractive mark so is fancied to bag a third success with this return to 10f also a plus on his polytrack debut. Howth wasn't seen to best effect at Haydock last time and could emerge as the chief threat now he is easing in the weights. Diamond Ranger, Paris Lights and Return To Dubai all need factoring into an open handicap too.
