Chips And Rice (13/8), Expert Witness (16/5), Big Bear Hug (9/2), Morcar (15/2), Ribal (8/1), New Heights (10/1), Silver Nightfall (20/1), River Alwen (25/1), Dotties Star (33/1)

CHIPS AND RICE signalled she is ready to strike when just edged out here last time so looks the way to go in this tightly-knit handicap. Recent C&D scorer Big Bear Hug heads the list of dangers, with Expert Witness and New Heigths both in the picture too.
