Changeofmind (10/3), Hedge Fund (6/1), Taygar (13/2), Monks Dream (7/1), Arnhem (17/2), King Of Bears (9/1), Wen Moon (10/1), Zarzyni (12/1), Alligator Alley (14/1), Phoenix Of Dreams (16/1), Glory Fighter (16/1), Noel Fox (22/1), Hyperfocus (22/1), Parisiac (50/1)

ZARZYNI is on a good mark and his latest Beverley near miss suggests he's back in the sort of form to take advantage. Monks Dream is better than recent form figures suggest and is a possible threat. Taygar arrives on the back of a good effort at Ayr, while Hedge Fund has been given time since disappointing on his first start for Mick Appleby and remains one who could do well for his new yard.
