Rathmacknee (1/1), Sure Touch (15/8), Drenagh (11/4), Trevada (13/2), Emorelle (17/2), Striking Out (12/1), Holerday Ridge (28/1), Mole Court (33/1), Martalmix'jac (250/1)

RATHMACKNEE showed up well on his first go over hurdles when third at Huntingdon so Nicky Henderson's Irish point scorer is fancied to build on that and fend off Sure Touch, who showed the benefit of a wind op when a good recent second here and rates the chief threat. Hurdling newcomer Trevada appeals as the pick of the remainder, especially if the market speaks in his favour.
