Verdict

This is wide open but KARL DES TOURELLES rates the pick after his excellent sixth in the Martin Pipe at Cheltenham. Da Capo Glory is also weighted to go well having acquitted himself with plenty of credit in the same contest and heads the list of dangers, which also includes Minella Sixo and Daydream Nation.

  1. KARL DES TOURELLES (FR)
  2. DA CAPO GLORY (IRE)
  3. MINELLA SIXO (IRE)
