Togoville (4/1), Sunset Nova (4/1), Fridtjof Nansen (4/1), Annabelle Rock (6/1), Jered Maddox (13/2), Eglish (13/2), Fit For Function (16/1), Oh Purple Reign (20/1), Trueba (28/1), Illetas (40/1), Mienvee Flyer (50/1), Theoneyouare (50/1), Wonder Fullbright (66/1)

TOGOVILLE has gone up 10 lb for his clear-cut, all-the-way success over 7f here last week, but he has won off higher marks than this in the past and the evergreen 11-y-o is taken to complete the hat-trick. Annabelle Rock has returned to form with back-to-back near misses over this C&D in recent weeks and she should be in the mix once again. Fit For Function is also shortlisted.
