Inneston (11/4), Amrons Sage (7/2), Twin Power (6/1), Egbert (15/2), Equinus (8/1), Spanish Present (12/1), Missed Tee (14/1), Sporting Mike (16/1), Gaelic Park (20/1), Keep Running (28/1), Grey D'alco (33/1)
Plenty are in with a shout. AMRONS SAGE caught the eye when a strong-finishing second at Ludlow last time and looks to have got in lightly for his handicap bow so is fancied to emerge on top. Hat-trick seeking Missed Tee also looks to have better days ahead of her and is feared most, although recent handicap scorers Equinus and Twin Power can't be taken lightly either in a competitive event.
