Kilnew Supreme (4/6), Crest Of Stars (15/8), Parchment (7/1), Royal Rocket (22/1), Docteur Romeo (80/1), Winning Paddy (125/1), Warfleet (150/1)
Preference is for KILNEW SUPREME, who bumped into an improver when second at Wincanton on hurdling debut and he can build on that effort to go one better. Course winner Crest of Stars looks worth another try at this longer trip and is feared most, ahead of Parchment.
