Saddlers Quest (3/1), Isabella Bee (7/2), Vision Of Hope (11/2), Coastal Sun (6/1), Caitlin's Court (9/1), Karannelle (10/1), Ryder's Rock (11/1), Energy Two (11/1), Citizen Jane (20/1), Three Macks (33/1), Pepsiwithacap (50/1), Ocean Reach (50/1), Grinn (80/1)

Although the fact it took SADDLERS QUEST 14 attempts to win over hurdles doesn't mark her down as an obvious one to go back to back, the first 2 came well clear of the third and she could still be well treated off 6 lb higher. Fellow last-time-out scorer Caitlin's Court is second choice ahead of Vision of Hope. Fergal O'Brien handicap newcomer Isabella Bee is one to monitor closely in the betting.
