Russian Diamond (2/1), Busselton (3/1), Gloire D'Athon (16/5), Grand Bornand (4/1), Birchdale (5/1), Karl Der Grosse (10/1), Flindt (12/1), Stormey (20/1), Dawn Raider (66/1), Mosstown Miller (66/1), Four Courts (150/1)
BUSSELTON was placed at Graded level in juvenile hurdles last term and is selected to make the most of the weight he receives from these older rivals now switching to fences on his reappearance. Birchdale has solid form claims but he didn't always impress with his jumping over fences during his time with Nicky Henderson so it could be that the main threat comes from Gloire d'Athon.
