Royale Pagaille (5/2), Trelawne (11/4), Mr Vango (4/1), Richmond Lake (7/1), Imagine (10/1), Iwilldoit (12/1), Bill Baxter (12/1), Chambard (66/1)

Venetia Williams' top-class chaser ROYALE PAGAILLE has built up a fine record round here and earns a confident vote to follow up his Betfair Chase heroics and complete a fine hat-trick in this event. Sandown-scorer Mr Vango remains quite unexposed and could emerge as the main danger in receipt of stacks of weight, with Iwilldoit, Trelawne and Imagine all worthy of consideration for minor honours.
