Karoline Banbou (4/5), Port Joulain (15/8), Koori Star (15/2), Dr Eggman (9/1), Park Of Kings (25/1), Stuntman Steve (28/1), Jinxs Link (125/1), Reliable Prince (150/1)

Verdict

Willie Mullins saddles three and his useful winning hurdler KAROLINE BANBOU rates a confident choice to build on a promising chasing debut second here and go one better. Koori Star drops markedly in trip but still appeals as the one to chase home the selection ahead of Port Joulain and Stuntman Steve.

  1. KAROLINE BANBOU (FR)
