Isaac Des Obeaux (10/3), Mt Fugi Park (4/1), Bowenspark (5/1), Great Pepper (11/2), Don't Rightly Know (11/1), Latenightpass (11/1), Now Is The Hour (12/1), Alcedo (14/1), Inox Allen (20/1), Haiti Couleurs (25/1)

GREAT PEPPER was value for a bit extra over the result after idling in front when defying a penalty at Kelso in December and could well be up to maintaining his unbeaten record under Rules now upped in class, especially with the extra distance likely to be in his favour. Isaac des Obeau wasn't seen to best effect in a Cheltenham Grade 2 on his most recent outing and remains with potential for last year's winning yard, with the shortlist completed by the promising Mt Fugi Park.
