Eaton Collina (2/1), Sure Touch (3/1), Thor De Cerisy (10/3), Desque De L'Isle (7/2), Rath Gaul Hill (9/1), Morning Spirit (10/1)
EATON COLLINA eventually got the hang of things over fences last season and had excuses at Wetherby on his return, so is worth another chance off what remains a decent mark. Desque de L'isle bounced back to form when winning at Lingfield on his first attempt at this trip and is the obvious threat ahead of Sure Touch.
