Ettila De Sivola (11/8), Raecius Felix (9/4), Lord Of The Rock (10/3), Manetti (11/2), Inca Gold (6/1)

Verdict

This is a weak event and one which offers INCA GOLD an opportunity to banish the memory of his recent fall at Sedgefield and secure his first win over fences at the ninth time of asking. He won't have it all his own way though as the chasing newcomer Lord Of The Rock showed enough in three runs over hurdles last season to suggest he can make his presence felt at this level. Raecius Felix can get back on track and prove best of the rest as he appears as one who is capable of more than he has showed in his short career so far.
