The Navigator (7/4), Maghlaak (7/2), Fostered Phil (4/1), The Gray Ghost (11/2), Starlyte (17/2), Asa (18/1), Jakana (40/1), Red Force One (50/1)
ASA thrived over the winter and having still looked well-treated when falling at Market Rasen in February, she could run a big race if returning in the same form. The Navigator won this race off 7 lb lower last year but arrives on the back of a C&D victory in a stronger race, while Maghlaak finished a close second on his sole start over 2½m at Market Rasen and may get back on track in a change of headgear, reunited with Brian Hughes.
