16/1

Comment: Unable to land a blow over 5f at Lingfield ten days ago but this trip will be more suitable and he lurks on a dangerous mark.

Sundiata Keita

Jockey: Rob Hornby Trainer: Joe Ponting Age/Wt: 3/9-5 F: 962354 OR: 58

18/1

Comment: Ten-race maiden; three good runs from four attempts for his new stable but he will need to pull out extra if he is to break his duck.

Little Miss Magic

Jockey: Isobelle Chalmers Trainer: Patrick Chamings Age/Wt: 4/9-6 F: 882392 OR: 57

20/1

Comment: Her only win came at Bath, coming from off the pace to land a 5f handicap last August (good to firm); she has finished second in two of her last four starts, the latest back at Bath 33 days ago; vulnerable for win purposes.

Wild Embers

Jockey: S Donohoe Trainer: Des Donovan Age/Wt: 3/9-5 F: 456995 OR: 58

20/1

Comment: Patchy record but he was well backed at Southwell last month and ran a better race, beaten 2l into fifth of the ten runners (behind Top Biller); tongue-tie added today but he has the widest stall to contend with.
