Largy Debut (13/8), Aione (4/1), Where It All Began (9/2), Aldo The Apache (5/1), Changing The Rules (7/1), Backintheroom (9/1), That'll Be The Day (40/1), Mansoline (200/1)

Verdict

A winner over hurdles here last term, LARGY DEBUT has kept good company since switched to fences, contesting maiden chases won by the likes of Gentlemansgame, Mighty Potter and Sir Gerhard, and this represents a golden opportunity for the 8-y-o to open his account in this sphere. Changing The Rules wouldn't be without an each-way chance if taking to this game but clear second choice is Where It All Began, who stepped up on his chase debut effort when second at Wexford last month.

  1. LARGY DEBUT (IRE)
  2. WHERE IT ALL BEGAN (IRE)
  3. CHANGING THE RULES (IRE)
