Harefield (11/8), Santo De Lune (5/2), Destined To Shine (4/1), Born For War (8/1), Fairway Freddy (18/1), Shanroe Saint (20/1), Cheer's Delboy (25/1), General Bux (50/1), Echnaton (66/1), La Fille Francaise (100/1), St Merryn (100/1), Absolutely Frankie (100/1)

An interesting opener and one where SANTO DE LUNE is the suggestion. Connections have clearly had to exercise plenty of patience where the seven-year-old is concerned, but he showed on his only run of last season that he can go well when fresh and is a capable sort, so he gets the vote. Harefield looks one of the more likely improvers in the field and will probably represent a danger along with Destined To Shine and hurdling newcomers Born For War and Fairway Freddie, both of whom should be checked out for any market confidence.
