Ivar (4/5), Ruby Island (5/2), Thistle Ask (13/2), Prince Of Perth (16/1), Cream Of The West (18/1), Eloi Du Puy (28/1), Tenbobeachway (33/1), Fia Fuinidh (40/1), Shir I Dont Know (50/1), Shantou Moon (100/1), Highlander Hill (150/1), Tarquin Stardust (200/1), Captain Nelson (250/1), Vango Opera (300/1)

IVAR made an encouraging British debut after nearly a year off when runner-up at Bangor last month and this looks a good opportunity for him to go one better. Ruby Island has laid a solid foundation for hurdling in bumpers and rates the biggest threat, ahead of Thistle Ask, who probably needed the run on his recent stable debut at Newcastle.
