Dark Side Prince (2/1), Startling (9/4), Maris Angel (11/4), Cabeza De Llave (9/2), Sir Rodneyredblood (8/1), Chasing Gold (10/1), Commendation (16/1), Dubai Magic (28/1), She Went Whoosh (28/1), Flicka's Girl (33/1)

The vote goes to CABEZA DE LLAVE, who is now 3 lb lower in the weights compared to when notching his third C&D success last October and he has been knocking on the door of late. Startling has also been promising to come good in recent starts and she is shortlisted, along with the selection's stablemate Flicka's Girl. Maris Angel would have a huge chance if able to reproduce the form of her Wolverhampton win earlier this month.
