Shantreusse (4/1), Genois (5/1), Mars Harper (6/1), The Flier Begley (13/2), Eklat De Rire (8/1), Union Park (8/1), Fire Attack (17/2), Any Second Now (9/1), The Little Yank (11/1), Embittered (16/1), All Those Years (16/1), Fakiera (18/1), El Barra (20/1)

EKLAT DE RIRE is evidently fragile but he's capable of very smart form on his day and, boasting a good record fresh, he could be worth siding with to hit the ground running back from 12 months off. Any Second Now had little go right from an early stage when last seen in the National at Aintree and he's not underestimated on return. Mars Harper and Union Park complete the shortlist.
