Count Of Vendome (8/15), Harry Lowes (5/2), The Hawkstonian (11/2), Ayyadieh (66/1), Good Boy Griff (150/1)

Verdict

Having made an impressive winning debut over hurdles back in November, HARRY LOWES has very much caught the eye both starts since, not seen to anything like best effect when fifth on handicap debut at Windsor 6 weeks ago. Dan Skelton's 5-y-o remains with considerable potential and earns the vote over Count of Vendome, who looked all about stamina when successful at Doncaster.
