Destinee Royale (11/4), Favori De Sivola (3/1), Legends Gold (9/2), Captain Chaos (7/1), El Paso Wood (17/2), Colorado Doc (9/1), Premier D'troice (12/1), Quarenta (28/1)

Verdict

DESTINEE ROYALE was progressive over fences last season and was still full of running and going better than the eventual winner when falling at Cheltenham on her return on New Year's Day. She's almost certainly still on a good mark so remains of interest. Favori de Sivola is also progressive so is feared most as he bids for the hat-trick, with Legends Gold best of the others.
