Spirits Bay (4/6), Ten Lengths Tom (5/4), Elusiveness (11/1), Spice Heaven (22/1), Bredon Hill Dart (100/1), Royal Juniper (100/1), Confused Again (100/1), Benville Bridge (150/1)

SPIRITS BAY sets the bar high so gets a confident vote to build on two promising efforts over hurdles and get off the mark in this sphere. Uttoxeter-winner Ten Lengths Tom appeals as the one to chase home Nigel Twiston-Davies' useful bumper scorer ahead of Spice Heaven.
