Cuirassier Dempire (9/4), David John (3/1), Roman Numeral (6/1), My Idea (17/2), Cooper's Friend (10/1), Gleann Na Ndochais (11/1), Quick Brew (16/1), Jack The Hat (18/1), Classic Palace (33/1)

CUIRASSIER DEMPIRE ran well on his debut over fences last time out and can go one better under top weight here. The selection had to give best to a previous winner on that occasion and can see off David John who was hampered prior to winning off a 4lb lower mark at Worcester last time out. Of the remainder Roman Numeral has had just the five starts over fences and recorded his first success over the larger obstacles last time out and he can claim third.
