Tributo (10/11), Rockett Man (7/4), Needwood Blossom (9/1), Supercontango (12/1), Final Fantasy (33/1), Hyba (40/1), Red Sparrow (66/1), Young Charlie (150/1)

The drop to the minimum trip seems sure to suit ROCKETT MAN, who showed good speed over 6f at Kempton last time. Archie Watson's debutantes are always worth noting and Supercontango wouldn't need to be anything out of the ordinary to make a serious impact, while Tributo showed enough on his Newcastle debut to also warrant respect.
