Mr Trevor (10/3), Hurstwood (7/2), Hoof It Hoof It (6/1), Captain Dandy (15/2), Flavius Titus (8/1), Hurt You Never (8/1), One More Dream (9/1), Bay Of Hope (14/1), Frank The Spark (22/1), Saleet (25/1)

Verdict

HURSTWOOD took this 12 months ago and is fancied to capitalise on a handy-looking mark and extend his excellent record at this track. Recent Hamilton scorer Mr Trevor is feared most under a 5 lb penalty, although Captain Dandy seems sure to be on the premises too on the back of his Thirsk victory.
