Galopin Des Champs (15/8), Gaelic Warrior (4/1), Fact To File (9/2), Affordale Fury (8/1), I Am Maximus (9/1), Spindleberry (11/1), Inothewayurthinkin (16/1), Grangeclare West (25/1), Firefox (33/1), Stellar Story (33/1), Monty's Star (40/1), Lecky Watson (40/1), Champ Kiely (66/1)
GALOPIN DES CHAMPS may have lost his unbeaten record over fences at this course when third in the Savills Chase in December, but he still shaped encouragingly returning from 8 months off and he can go on to land a remarkable fourth consecutive win in this race. A pair of his stablemates could be the main dangers, with Gaelic Warrior feared most ahead of I Am Maximus.
