Squadron Commander (4/6), Jan Maat (5/1), Love N' Peace (7/1), Buck A Trend (8/1), Sullane Hill (12/1), Tarrytown (14/1), Teddy's Acre (40/1), Caboose (50/1), Lostinvillierstown (50/1)

Sullane Hill may not have achieved much on his point-to-point debut, but at least his victory showed he has ability. He is worth monitoring in the betting market along with newcomer Tarrytown, but this looks a potential match between point-to-point runner-up Jan Maat and newcomer SQUADRON COMMANDER. The selections appeals on pedigree and will have been well prepared for his debut.
