Nobby (2/5), Jante Law (5/2), Our Percy (17/2), Large Action (20/1), Legal Beagle (28/1), Geonice (33/1), My Macho Man (50/1), Shoeshine Boy (66/1), Sugar Butties (80/1), Storm Tiger (100/1), Harry Go (100/1), Deerfoot (125/1), Ribeye (200/1), Kinerton Hill (300/1)

Very hard to look beyond NOBBY, who made an encouraging hurdling debut/return in a much stronger affair than this at Newbury in February and can improve. Jante Law should be competitive under his penalty in a race lacking depth.
