The Cob (9/4), Calva D'Auge (5/2), Kateson (3/1), Nordic Combined (10/3), Good Man Pat (4/1), Ch'tibello (5/1), Azzerti (12/1)

Verdict

A case can be made for most of these in what looks a quite a trappy affair. KATESON is very much at home in the mud so he gets the nod to overcome a small rise for Aintree. Nordic Combined could also have a big say if his stamina holds now back up in trip, while hat-trick seeking The Cob can't be discounted either.

  1. KATESON
  2. NORDIC COMBINED (IRE)
  3. THE COB (IRE)
