Crack Cross Country performer JOSIES ORDERS makes easily the most appeal here and gets the vote to add a 10th career score. Ballycasey wasn't far behind him at Cheltenham last time out in his first such race and has the proven class to prove the biggest threat. Hurricane Darwin wasn't far behind the selection a couple of times last season and is now better off at the weights so another with realistic chances.
