Stand Up And Fight (13/8), Alpha Des Obeaux (7/2), Some Neck (7/2), Blue Templar (9/1), Space Cadet (10/1), Ballyboker Bridge (12/1), Singing Banjo (33/1), Call It Magic (33/1), Classic Concorde (50/1), Mia's Milan (66/1), Michael's Pick (80/1), Major Destination (100/1), King's Song (150/1), Like A Demon (200/1)

Only a handful of serious candidates, with SOME NECK taken to uphold Cheltenham Cross Country form with Alpha des Obeaux despite 5 lb worse terms with this step up to a marathon trip promising to suit. Ballyboker Bridge is a regular in this, winning it in 2019 and he's far more comfortable than most with the demands of this race.
