Sea The Clouds (5/4), Duke Of Deception (3/1), Feivel (7/2), Belles Benefit (9/2), Miss Milano (5/1), Firth Of Forth (7/1), Rowdy Rustler (14/1), Balkotic (22/1), Butler's Brief (28/1)

Cases can be made for many but preference is for ROWDY RUSTLER, who has been out of sorts since finishing runner-up at Newcastle 11 months ago but could be worth chancing for a yard who has hit the ground running this autumn. Feivel's jumping let him down back in the spring, but he may emerge as the main danger returning over hurdles, with the hat-trick-seeking Sea The Clouds and Belles Benefit taken to battle out third spot.
