Verdict

DO YOUR JOB was let down by an uncharacteristic error just as the race was taking shape on his comeback in the Old Roan at Aintree but is well worth another chance with his sights lowered. Revels Hill is a chaser to keep on the right side of given how he ended last season and is another to consider, along with Espoir de Guye, who has won on his reappearance for the last 2 seasons, including this race 2 years ago.

  1. DO YOUR JOB (IRE)
  2. REVELS HILL (IRE)
  3. ESPOIR DE GUYE (FR)
