Forecasts

Marv Michael (4/1), Guard Your Dreams (11/2), Lord Of Thunder (6/1), Bob Bob Ricard (13/2), Weveallbeencaught (17/2), Riskintheground (17/2), Bashers Reflection (17/2), Will Carver (10/1), Jazzy Matty (10/1), Dutch Schultz (12/1), Doughmore Bay (12/1), Lisnamult Lad (20/1), Andys Flame (28/1)

This is wide open but Nicky Henderson's WILL CARVER was unfortunate not to go 2-2 over fences when thwarted by a late blunder at Uttoxeter in the summer and gets the nod with likely more to come after breathing surgery. Irish challengers Dutch Schultz (second choice) and Marv Michael both look capable of better too and rate the chief threats, although a host of others are also in the mix, namely Lord of Thunder, Weveallbeencaught and Guard Your Dreams.
