Verdict

Impossible to rule out any of the quintet but preference is for ARIZONA GLORY, who is yet to get his head in front but has performed with credit in all but one of his 6 starts over fences. First-time cheekpieces go on and they can work the oracle for Evan Williams' charge. Valseur du Granval isn't the most reliable but can chase the selection home, ahead of Totally Rejected.

  1. ARIZONA GLORY
  2. VALSEUR DU GRANVAL (FR)
  3. TOTALLY REJECTED (IRE)
