Real Stone (15/8), Cheddleton (2/1), Pay The Piper (10/3), Fearless (11/2), Daly Tiger (22/1)

An intriguing small-field affair with the narrow vote in favour of Dan Skelton's REAL STONE. Successful at Ffos Las in January, he shaped as if he would come on for his reappearance effort at Aintree 2 weeks ago and there's a strong suspicion he remains on a good mark. Cheddleton, with an encouraging hurdles return under his belt, and Pay The Piper, from an easing mark, head up the dangers.
