Nassalam (3/1), Sam Barton (7/2), Kid Commando (9/2), Sizable Sam (11/2), Whatsupwithyou (13/2), Solo (8/1), Lord Baddesley (14/1)

Lots of potential on show here, and WHATSUPWITHYOU is fancied to emerge on top on his first go over fences given he is a winning pointer and hails from a yard in great form. Kid Commando also makes his chasing bow and can't be discounted given his good record when fresh, while Nassalam and Solo both figure on the shortlist in a fascinating novice chase.
