Mahler Allstar (1/5), The Road To Fame (3/1), Changing The Rules (7/2), Rebel Rascal (6/1), Brians Greatescape (12/1), Ask The Bishop (16/1), Jubilee Gold (18/1), Allyouneedisone (25/1), Ask The Bookie (50/1), Callista Lady (50/1), First Earl (66/1), Hutchie (66/1), Monfin Lad (100/1), Carroll's Pride (150/1), Elliedee (250/1)

A case of quantity over quality here with only a handful making any serious appeal. The vote goes to MAHLER ALLSTAR, who has reached a fairly useful level on all 3 of his starts in this sphere so far so this looks a decent opening for James Mangan's charge. The Road To Fame rates an obvious danger after his promising third on hurdling debut, along with Changing The Rules.
