Hk Fourteen (15/8), Calafrio (11/4), Cuban Rock (6/1), Pockley (13/2), Elzaal (7/1), Blackcurrent (16/1), Stallone (22/1), Ninety Nine (25/1), The Princes Poet (28/1), Mecca's Duchess (28/1), Rockley Point (50/1), Joshua R (80/1)

Cheekpieces worked a treat when NINENTY NINE bounced back to form in no uncertain terms at Catterick 10 days ago and from just 2 lb higher, she must go close again if she's in a similar mood. HK Fourteen landed a notable gamble at Bath last week and followed up here on Thursday so is a huge threat if taking up this engagement, with Calafrio likely to be on the premises.
