Verdict

The market will prove highly informative, but Paul Nicholls' GELINO BELLO brings useful bumper form to the table so he gets the nod at the chief exense of fellow hurdling debutant Doctor Ken for the in-form Olly Murphy team. Dan Skelton took this contest 12 months ago and his Lakota Warrior is another well worth considering on the back of a wind op along with Southwell runner-up Lockdown Leader.

  1. GELINO BELLO (FR)
