Plenty in with a shout, but Tom George's COME ON TEDDY arrives on the back of a cracking third in Cheltenham's Pertemps Final so this upwardly-mobile hurdler is fancied to emerge on top. Hometown Boy is another low-mileage sort with better days ahead of him now stepping up to 3m and is feared most, although handicap debutant Ballybegg and Champagne Platinum also have much to recommend them.
