Verdict

Bumper-winner JEREMY THE JINN showed enough when third on hurdles debut over C&D in December to think he's up to winning a race of this nature so he looks the way to go. Inca de Lafayette tasted success on his final start in France and has joined Paul Nicholls so he's feared, with Aristocrate a potentially different proposition this time.

  1. JEREMY THE JINN (IRE)
  2. INCA DE LAFAYETTE (FR)
