Dysart Enos (1/9), Justus (9/1), The Best Way (12/1), Jet Patrol (16/1), Konfusion (20/1), Graze On Phoenix (33/1), Geordie Night (33/1), Miss Applejack (40/1), Moves Like Monty (40/1), Garitsa Bay (150/1)

Verdict

DYSART ENOS has made a smooth transition from leading bumper performer to useful novice hurdler and Fergal O'Brien's mare is impossible to oppose in her bid to maintain her unbeaten Rules record. Justus wasn't far from his fairly useful Flat form when scoring at Catterick last time and he looks best placed to take advantage if the favourite underperforms, Miss Applejack was running below her bumper form when slipping up on hurdles bow but still makes appeal to complete the placings.

  1. DYSART ENOS (IRE)
  2. JUSTUS (IRE)
  3. MISS APPLEJACK
