Cobolobo (9/4), Speak Of The Devil (4/1), Garrane (9/2), The Ogle Gogle Man (5/1), Henry's Joy (7/1), Never Up (11/1), Diggin Deep (16/1)

The two with the most weight in this race may not have form figures that inspire confidence. However, despite the fact they are still maidens, both COBOLOBO and Garrane have form in better races than this. The latter should strip fitter for his seasonal reappearance after finishing down the field at Cheltenham. Although he has a point to prove though, the former is preferred given he holds slightly stronger form on the two occasions he has completed over fences. The lightly raced Speak Of The Devil retains plenty of potential at this level over fences and can claim third after posting a highly encouraging chase debut when second at Newcastle last month.
