Turcagua (5/4), Bonbon Au Miel (9/4), Cadmium (6/1), Chateau Conti (7/1), Fit To Be Tied (12/1), Timiyan (12/1), Phil The Flyer (16/1), Lacken Bridge (25/1), A Plein Temps (25/1), Florianopolis (40/1), Seanathair (66/1)

Verdict

A Hard race to call, with many of these having their chasing debuts, and ability to jump fluently is going to have a big say in who wins this. TURCAGUA makes plenty of appeal on paper as one that may do better over fences, and he brings some good hurdles form in to this. Stablemate Chateau Conti is another bred to do well over fences and getting the tongue tie for the first time here, may be the main danger. Willie Mullins might have the first three home, with Cadmium holding a squeak as well.
  1. Turcagua
  2. Chateau Conti
  3. Cadmium
