Cobblers Dream (6/4), Thunder Rock (13/8), Ritson (9/2), Grand Du Nord (9/1), Adjournment (12/1), Le Grand Lion (25/1), Phoenix Strike (80/1), Big Changes (150/1)

Verdict

Hard to see beyond THUNDER ROCK, who made a very bright start over hurdles at Newton Abbot behind a potentially-smart sort and looks sure to improve, with this stiffer test right in his favour. Adjournment is next on the shortlist after a promising display at Cheltenham. Cobblers Dream could bounce back over this longer trip, while Grand du Nord should have a future in this game.
