Rebellious Gale (3/1), General Clermont (7/2), A Mere Bagatelle (5/1), Zalika (7/1), Bilbo Bagins (17/2), Ricky Langford (11/1), Mullins Cross (12/1), Early Arrival (16/1), So Easy Way (16/1), Fly De Megaudais (20/1)

A MERE BAGATELLE looked better than ever when scoring over hurdles at Perth last month and, 4 lb lower in the weights now switched to fences, this 5-y-o will have every chance if his jumping passes the test. Rebellious Gale was also successful in a handicap hurdle on his latest start, but this sizeable drop back in trip may not be ideal. Consequently, Ricky Langford and General Clermont rate the main dangers.
