Presenting Julio (7/2), Indian Castle (9/2), Bugsie Malone (7/1), What Happens Now (8/1), Sporting Boy (8/1), Azure Fly (12/1), Capard King (12/1), Petite Power (14/1), Wood Yer (14/1), Regal Flow (16/1), Morney Wing (20/1), Bertie Boru (33/1), Honkytonktennessee (33/1), Murray Mount (40/1), Amiral Collonges (50/1), Thady Quil (66/1), Walden Prince (66/1)

Several of these seems to be not running at their ideal trip here, with a few wanting an even stiffer test and others better over slightly shorter. With that in mind, PRESENTING JULIO looks appealing. Gordon Elliott's charge should enjoy the trip and has Jamie Codd on board, with jockey bookings often counting for plenty in big field amateur chases, especially at this course. Regal Flow, the only C&D winner in the field may provide the biggest danger while Wood Yer isn't getting any younger but was unlucky off this mark towards the end of last season.
