Mighty Potter (4/6), Appreciate It (3/1), Banbridge (7/2), Stage Star (15/2), James Du Berlais (16/1), Balco Coastal (16/1), Notlongtillmay (40/1), Unexpected Party (100/1), Christopher Wood (100/1)

MIGHTY POTTER has been hugely impressive in winning his first three chase outings, powering away to land the Scalp Novices' Chase at Leopardstown last time, and with more to come he's the obvious way to go. Appreciate It hasn't achieved as much over fences but his hurdling class brings him into the reckoning, while another solid performance is expected from Banbridge.
