Echo Watt (15/8), The Newest One (4/1), Eclair De Guye (5/1), Game Line (11/2), Snuff Box (13/2), Colonel Keating (13/2), Vinnie Dev (10/1), Premier D'troice (14/1), A Toi Phil (16/1)

Following a low-key start to the season, ECHO WATT returned to form when third in the C&D Surrey National last time, despite the fact that he was 5 lb out of the weights. Able to compete off his correct mark now, the 8-y-o is likely to prove a tough nut to crack. Eclair de Guye and Game Line will be key players if firing on all cylinders, while Premier d'Troice is also worth a second look.
