Langer Dan (4/1), Cobblers Dream (4/1), Balco Coastal (8/1), Speech Bubble (8/1), Peking Rose (17/2), Broomfield Burg (9/1), Fils D'oudairies (10/1), Highway One O Two (16/1), Politesse (20/1), Paddys Motorbike (22/1), Tronador (22/1), Garry Clermont (25/1), Quinta Do Mar (25/1), Some Day Soon (33/1), Mackenberg (33/1), Navajo Pass (33/1), Lucky Max (40/1), Solwara One (40/1), Fred (66/1), Hang In There (80/1), Rockadenn (100/1), Top Moon (150/1)

LANGER DAN didn't get the chance to show what he could do in the Martin Pipe but the fact he went off favourite suggests connections were hopeful he was back in the same form as when second in that race last year and he's well worth another chance. The Chris Gordon stable is in excellent form so Highway One O Two, who was runner-up off a higher mark last season, has to be on the shortlist. Nicky Henderson pair Balco Coastal and Fils d'Oudairies are also respected along with Cobblers Dream.
