Asterion Forlonge (4/5), Fil Dor (10/3), Mister Policeman (7/2), Lonesome Boatman (11/1), Hascoeur Clermont (50/1)

Verdict

A potential match between ASTERION FORLONGE and Fil Dor. The latter had quite a hard race in the Grand National 2 weeks ago so last year's winner Asterion Forlonge gets the vote.

  1. Asterion Forlonge4/5
  2. Fil Dor10/3
  3. Mister Policeman7/2
