Canelo (7/4), Storm Home (15/8), Captain Cattistock (4/1), Court Affairs (12/1), As I See It (14/1), Vodka All The Way (14/1), Call Me Sid (50/1), Balibour (80/1), Ifandabut (100/1), Iskrabob (150/1), Waitinonasunnyday (250/1)

Quite a bit of guesswork involved given the main protagonists are so lightly raced. Captain Cattistock, Storm Home and CANELO boast the best form over hurdles and preference is for the latter after his debut second at Chepstow. As I See It, Vodka All The Way and, in particular, Court Affairs, are hurdling newcomers worth noting in the betting.
