Orrisdale (7/4), Colonel Custard (7/2), Arian (9/2), Kauto The King (5/1), Corran Cross (7/1), Chinwag (8/1), Itacare (11/1), Entre Deux (12/1), Doitforthevillage (12/1), Vinnie The Hoddie (16/1), Tiquer (22/1)

Many in with chances but last year's winner ARIAN gets the nod. She progressed for Philip Hobbs last season and, although her season ended with a bit of a whimper, she can regain the winning thread having scored on reappearance 12 months ago. Orrisdale, Kauto The King and Corran Cross are just a trio of possible dangers in an enthralling feature contest.
