Hatcher (5/6), Francky Du Berlais (6/5), The Tangler Barry (16/1), Pack It In (40/1), Bounderby (66/1), Call Sign Charlie (100/1), Lady Ingleby (200/1), Iona Island (200/1)

HATCHER looks the most likely winner of this event and as such holds strong claims of completing a four-timer. Of his rivals Francky Du Berlais is the only previous hurdles winner in the field and he can claim second ahead of point-to-point winner The Tangler Barry who can improve on his hurdles debut to claim third.
