Fou De Toi (5/4), Quantum Quest (10/3), Our Soldier (11/2), Banter At The Bar (10/1), Le Coq Hardi (11/1), Weveallbeencaught (12/1), You Oughta Know (18/1), Positive Thinker (18/1), Born Braver (20/1), Prends Garde A Toi (25/1)
FOU DE TOI hasn't looked back since sent over fences and with this longer trip also a likely plus he is fancied to complete a quick hat-trick. Both Our Soldier and Quantum Quest have also been shaping as though this marathon distance will show them in a much better light though and should ensure Willie Mullins' upwardly-mobile young chaser doesn't have things all his own way in this intriguing handicap.
