Elnajmm (11/8), Bopedro (7/1), Tolstoy (17/2), Sterling Knight (10/1), Tempus (11/1), Obelix (12/1), Great Blasket (12/1), Silver Sword (12/1), Sean (14/1), Bennetot (28/1), Raadobarg (40/1), Baradar (40/1)

ELNAJMM was impressive when making a winning seasonal/handicap debut at Newcastle a month ago and he could still have plenty more to offer after only 5 career starts so far. The 4-y-o is taken to see off the challenge of the thriving Tolstoy, who is respected in his bid for the 4-timer, with Bopedro completing the shortlist.
