Magical King (8/15), Willsburg (9/4), Tommy Time (13/2), Brother Boris (18/1), Para Handy (66/1), Red Sam (100/1), Black Bart (125/1), Zuul (150/1)

MAGICAL KING possesses much the best form on show so this reliable sort is taken to gain a deserved breakthrough success back in these calmer waters. Recent Ffos Las scorer Willsburg rates the main threat, with Tommy Time not discounted either if resurgent after breathing surgery.
