Forecasts

El Fabiolo (2/9), Jonbon (7/2), Edwardstone (15/2), Captain Guinness (17/2), Gentleman De Mee (16/1), Elixir De Nutz (40/1), Boothill (50/1), Funambule Sivola (100/1)

Verdict

EL FABIOLO was edged out by Jonbon in a Grade 1 novice hurdle at Aintree a couple of years ago but he saw off Nicky Henderson's charge by 5½ lengths in last season's Arkle and can make it 2-1 in his favour in their head-to-head rivalry. Edwardstone looked back to his best at Newbury and can take third.
