Forecasts

Killer Kane (7/2), Sizable Sam (9/2), Minella Buster (9/2), Masters Legacy (7/1), Gats And Co (8/1), St Erney (9/1), Neon Moon (9/1), Pileon (18/1), When You're Ready (25/1), Sizing Cusimano (40/1), One More Fleurie (50/1)

Verdict

Plenty to consider but KILLER KANE won at a higher level than this last season so shades the vote. Minella Buster made an impressive debut in this sphere at Kempton on return and should have more to offer, with Gats And Co another for the shortlist.

  1. KILLER KANE (IRE)
  2. MINELLA BUSTER (IRE)
  3. GATS AND CO
