Haafapiece (13/8), Hallings Comet (7/2), Capitoul (9/2), Aldrin (13/2), Shiroccan Roll (7/1), Too Many Diamonds (10/1), Rock Steady (12/1), Tempuran (16/1), Lock's Corner (16/1), Do You Know What (20/1)

The Aintree reappearance of TOO MANY DIAMONDS last month had plenty to admire in it. Dan Skelton's charge should be all the better for that first outing of 2019 and can go close here if taking a step forward in what looks an open event. Course specialist Hallings Comet would be very dangerous if given an easy lead, while the likes of Capitoul, Rock Steady and C&D winner Haafapiece also need close inspection.
