To Chase A Dream (6/5), Tarras Wood (9/4), Leading Choice (5/1), Walk On Quest (15/2), Jo Arengeot Bey Aa (25/1), Rock Steady Eddie (66/1), Ronnies Reflection (100/1), Kinder Kid (150/1)

WALK ON QUEST was caught out by inexperience to a degree when runner-up on his Rules debut at Kelso in December and, with improvement anticipated over this longer trip, he's selected to go one better. Leading Choice hasn't been seen for 14 months but he showed plenty on both his starts in this sphere in late 2022 and remains likely to do better, while To Chase A Dream and Tarras Wood are others to consider.
