Alexei (4/7), Pigeon House (5/2), Byzantium (16/5), Tuxedo Junction (15/2), Thistle Be The One (9/1), Chedington's Guest (18/1), Calli Black (25/1), Don't Tell Rosie (150/1), Steel Dancer (150/1), D'gesteevo (150/1), Torre Del Oro (150/1), Clever Relation (250/1), Staff Sergeant Len (250/1), Youm Jameel (250/1)

It was a thin maiden ALEXEI won here last month, but he couldn't have done it any easier and, with the drop in trip holding no fears, he's fancied to defy a penalty en route to better things. Tuxedo Junction and Pigeon House are fancied to give the selection most to think about.
