Something To Do (13/8), Eccentric (3/1), Harlington (18/5), Mamalouka (7/1), Compton Bay (17/2), Run Joy Run (14/1), Lightning Bay (125/1)

ECCENTRIC isn't one for maximum faith given his occasional slow starts, but he ran about as well as could be expected behind a pair of lightly-raced improvers at this venue on his most recent outing and could be the answer if seeing out the longer trip. Mamalouka is better judged on her previous form having made her effort earlier than ideal at Newcastle last month, with handicap-debutant Harlington another to consider.
