Galopin Des Champs (10/11), Gerri Colombe (13/2), Fastorslow (8/1), Corach Rambler (14/1), Bravemansgame (14/1), Hewick (14/1), L'Homme Presse (16/1), Jungle Boogie (16/1), Monkfish (18/1), Gentlemansgame (25/1), Nassalam (33/1), The Real Whacker (40/1)

Verdict

After a couple of defeats GALOPIN DES CHAMPS has reestablished himself as the best around in this division with Grade 1 wins at Leopardstown on his last 2 starts (particularly impressive on the first occasion) and can emulate former stablemate Al Boum Photo and become the ninth dual winner of jump racing's Blue Riband. Fastorslow, who beat the selection twice last year and chased him home at Leopardstown last month, can fill the forecast spot ahead of last year's runner-up Bravemansgame.
