Sindhia (5/2), Raphael (16/5), Bucky Larson (6/1), Longbourn (8/1), Angel Palanas (8/1), War Hero (9/1), Theophile (11/1), Sh Boom (12/1), Tommy Taylor (16/1), Khafaaq (18/1), Harriet's Force (33/1), Oh Purple Reign (40/1), Double Kodiac (50/1), Memsie (80/1), Twenty Minutes (100/1)

Adrian McGuinness has his string in fantastic form and holds two live candidates in WAR HERO and Raphael. They filled the first 2 spots in a C&D handicap last week, with the former weighted to gain revenge this time. It will be interesting to see what Gordon Elliott can do with Oh Purple Reign and he's one to monitor in the betting.
