This is wide open but stamina could prove key under the likely testing conditions so Rebecca Curtis' upwardly-mobile HAITI COULEURS is taken to follow up his victory in Cheltenham's National Hunt Handicap at the chief expense of Now Is The Hour, who would have finished an excellent second there but for falling two out. Final Orders is weighted to go well and also enters calculations along with Kinturk Kalanisi, Jonhnnywho, Bioluminescence, Harry des Ongrais and Any Second Now.
