Verdict

KINONDO KWETU enjoyed a marvellous last season when scoring five times and this C&D winner is weighted to go close once more as he is able to race off the same mark as when an excellent third at Aintree last time. Dan Skelton's Hidden Heroics is also weighted to have a say and is next on the list ahead of the returning Empire de Maulde and likeable Saint Arvans.

  1. KINONDO KWETU
  2. HIDDEN HEROICS (FR)
  3. EMPIRE DE MAULDE (FR)
