Anti Bridgie (10/3), Some Scope (7/2), Twoshotsoftequila (4/1), Almazhar Garde (11/2), Kayf Hernando (6/1), Court At Slip (9/1), Shanty Alley (11/1)

Verdict

SOME SCOPE was an improver across a light hurdling campaign last year and would have finished much closer at Wetherby if not for a bad mistake on chase debut, so is given the nod to make it seconf time lucky in this sphere. Twoshotsoftequila was caught only late at Carlisle last time and is another for the shortlist, with Anti Bridgie and Shanty Alley also considered in a open-looking event.
