Quel Destin (11/10), Torpillo (11/8), Capone (10/1), Fanzio (14/1)

Verdict

Very hard to split the two main protagonists in this with the official ratings favouring Quel Destin by 1lb but TORPILLO may just have the greater scope for improvement as he steps up in class. Both of the trainers of these two have taken the race before with Nigel Twiston-Davies winning the prize last year and Paul Nicholls landing the spoils with the redoubtable Frodon in 2016. Capone and Fanzio have a tough task at the weights to crack the main two but the former is preferred in the battle for the minor place having seen the back of Quel Destin before on his debut at Doncaster.
