Real Steel (5/2), Hardline (7/1), Jetz (15/2), Poker Party (8/1), Pravalaguna (9/1), Louis' Vac Pouch (9/1), De Name Escapes Me (9/1), Beyond The Law (12/1), Quamino (14/1), R'evelyn Pleasure (16/1), Scoir Mear (16/1), Ah Littleluck (20/1)

English challenger Louis' Vac Pouch has done well over fences and should not be underestimated, but this may chiefly concern the two at the top of the handicap, Real Steel and HARDLINE. The latter probably found 2m too sharp in the Arkle Chase and is given the chance to show the market support for him that day was indicative of his ability. Poker Party is improving and can go well, along with Scoir Mear and De Name Escapes Me.
