A strong renewal with plenty that can be given a chance of taking this prize with the vote going to SUPERSUNDAE to follow up his 2017 Coral Cup win having shown plenty of class and versatility of late. Sam Spinner and Yanworth will prove worthy adversaries though the former could still be improving while the latter is closely matched with the selection on their Aintree running last season returned to hurdles. The New One would be a popular winner on his first try at the trip with Unowhatimeanharry bidding to go two better than last year. If there is to be a relative upset then the unexposed Barcardys could be the one to provide it.
