Grand Vision (1/1), Pacha Du Polder (9/4), Poole Master (9/2), Big Fella Thanks (5/1), Colbert Station (11/1), Whichwaytobougie (100/1)
Most of these have been very decent performers in their prime and we will take GRAND VISION to eclipse the top-rated Pacha Du Polder on this occasion. Colin Tizzard's charge is just a very consistent performer and is likely to give punters a similar level of performance once again. Big Fella Thanks may still have enough ability to take home a portion of the money on offer.
