Toto Too (11/10), Hashtag Pretender (3/1), But What (9/2), Ivana (11/2), Musta Lovea Lovea (8/1), Rosalys (17/2), Faux Fur (14/1), Reversal (50/1), Jack Du Large (50/1), Makaela's Choice (66/1), Verbal Sparring (80/1), Willie The Coo (150/1), Coffee Bay (150/1), Path To The Moon (150/1), One Flew Eau Verte (200/1), Dream Once More (200/1), Divilabother (200/1), Wild Ridge (200/1), Keeptheoldmanout (200/1), Irina's Path (250/1), What's Lariat Now (250/1)

TOTO TOO has created a good impression in bumpers and is bred to be at least as good over hurdles, so he's put forward as the answer to an interesting maiden hurdle. Fellow bumper winners Rosalys and Ivana warrant plenty of respect, with Hashtag Pretender clear pick of those with hurdling experience.
