Le Beau Madrik (5/2), Chicker (7/2), Collanisi (11/2), Not Without Danger (6/1), Crossgales King (15/2), Bells Grove (11/1), Antarctic Legend (11/1), Hans Lippershey (22/1), Wonder Flying (33/1), Escort'kheops (80/1), Le Fabuleux Buck's (80/1)

Fergal O'Brien's CHICKER created an excellent impression when strolling clear in a Worcester bumper in August and can make light of a penalty to go 2-2 for his in-form yard. Dan Skelton's Le Beau Madrik shaped well when runner-up at Plumpton on his debut in the spring and could emerge as the main danger on his return, although Irish raider Bells Grove also has the form to play a part. Not Without Danger and Collanisi look to have better days ahead of them too and complete the shortlist.
