Quick Draw (10/3), Sam Barton (4/1), Your Darling (9/2), Duc De Beauchene (13/2), Kauto The King (8/1), Animal (8/1), Keep Wondering (17/2), Slipway (10/1), Chic Name (25/1), Maypole Class (25/1), Realm Keeper (33/1), Joueur Bresilien (50/1), Canyon City (66/1)

In a race littered with ifs and buts, DUC DE BEAUCHENE looks the way to go following an eye-catching effort at Hereford last month. He was given a considerate ride over what was an inadequate trip on that occasion, and it was encouraging that he jumped with greater fluency than has often been the case. Animal has taken well to fences and is next on the list ahead of Keep Wondering and Sam Barton.
