Al Hamdany (3/1), Castlelyons (7/2), Mixboy (5/1), Crowned Eagle (6/1), Cohesion (13/2), Canberra Cliffs (10/1), Nonios (10/1), Fair Power (16/1), Afonso De Sousa (25/1)

It might be worth chancing MIXBOY despite his lack of experience on the AW, he's two from there so far on the Flat and reached a rating of 140 over jumps. The manner of his most recent Catterick success suggests even an 11lb hike may not ground his ambitions. Crowned Eagle is in new hands but ran well enough at Newmarket since being gelded to leave the impression he could go well while Cohesion and Castlelyons are also set to be factors.
