Never Adapt (6/5), Montestrel (10/3), Quel Destin (4/1), Cracker Factory (11/2), Katpoli (20/1), Il Re Di Nessuno (25/1), Needs To Be Seen (50/1)

NEVER ADAPT must have cost owner JP McManus a King's ransom and this filly can follow in the footsteps of Apples Shakira who won this race last year for Nicky Henderson whose record with juvenile hurdlers is unparalleled. Montestrel may prove the main danger having beaten smart performer and rival today Quel Destin on debut although that rival is now 4lb better off so must also be considered.
