Crest Of Fortune (4/5), Kap Vert (6/4), Peacenik (7/2), Tractor Jack (50/1), Pink Eyed Pancho (66/1), Devon Blue (100/1), What U Wanna Do Is (125/1), Winnaretta (150/1), Eric Gorcombe (200/1)
This might develop into a straight fight between previous hurdle winners CREST OF FORTUNE and Kap Vert. The former had Kap Vert around 10 lengths behind him when the pair clashed at Ffos Las in November and can confirm his superiority over Ronnie Bartlett's charge. Peacenik is clear best of the rest.
