Black Corton (10/11), Ms Parfois (7/4), Mount Mews (5/1), Crystal Lad (25/1)

Black Corton has been a joy to watch this season and has developed a good habit of winning. Victory here would surely see him take his place in the RSA at the Cheltenham Festival, but he's been on the go for a while now and the nagging feeling that it will catch up with him at some point remains. It could be that, in receipt of 7lb, MS PARFOIS might be able to take advantage. She is improving quickly now and her solid jumping will keep her right in the hunt here. Mount Mews is no back number here either and is there to take advantage if the others fail to fire.
