Pont Aven (6/4), Solomon Grey (4/1), The Dellercheckout (9/2), Not That Fuisse (13/2), Green Winter (17/2), Bletchley Castle (9/1), Hidden Charmer (28/1), Bandsman (40/1), Vango De Vaige (100/1), Asangy (200/1)

Verdict

PONT AVEN showed plenty of class for Willie Mullins and got off the mark for his new yard in ready fashion between the flags recently, so he's fancied to make a winning start in this discipline. Last year's winner of this race, The Dellercheckout, should put up another bold showing, while Not That Fuisse's claims can't be ignored.
