Griggy (2/1), Clashaniska (9/4), Knockout Blow (7/2), Fard (5/1), Ancient Astronaut (8/1), Cappadocia (16/1), Bernie's Boy (25/1), Butcherofstockholm (28/1), Mykindofsunshine (66/1)

KNOCKOUT BLOW has a good record at this venue and has returned in fine heart after a year off. He can gain another C&D victory. Griggy is on a workable mark and he should go well off top weight with Kirby in the saddle. Clashaniska could improve on his recent course win to get involved again too.
