General Officer (6/4), Chapel Green (7/2), Horn Cape (9/2), Fenna's Loss (5/1), Hello Judge (8/1), Fete Champetre (10/1), Belvedere Blast (12/1)

GENERAL OFFICER showed fairly useful form over hurdles last season and, as a winning pointer, he appeals as the type to do better over fences, so he gets the nod over fellow chasing debutants Chapel Green and Fenna's Loss in what looks an interesting contest on paper.
