Furiously Fast (10/3), Grand Turina (4/1), Fraternel (5/1), Presence Of Mind (5/1), Oski (11/2), Voyage De Retour (7/1), Carrick Roads (12/1), Lamanver Bel Ami (20/1), Fitz Well (22/1), Where Eagles Dare (33/1), Luis Van Zandt (66/1)
The vote goes to VOYAGE DE RETOUR, who made a positive start for this yard when runner-up in a decent novice hurdle at Southwell and this former point winner is of interest now that his attention is turned to chasing. Grand Turina is a much-respected main danger, while Furiously Fast could be in line for more place money.
