Marble Sands (3/1), Flagrant Delitiep (3/1), Contemplatemyfaith (10/3), Top Of The Bill (7/2), Milan Bridge (13/2), Kings Krackertara (10/1), Ultra Viers (50/1)

Verdict

TOP OF THE BILL failed to win in 4 bumper starts, but he still displayed a fairly useful level of form and looks interesting now going hurdling with his yard in good nick. Flagrant Delitiep developed into a useful chaser last season so is highly respected back over hurdles, with Marble Sands and Contemplatemyfaith others to view positively in an interesting race.
