Finian's Rainbow has been looking extremely sharp over the past few season and put in a great shift in the Desert Orchid during his first outing of the season a few weeks back. Al Ferof is very much in the mix for this one as well and this is his first contest outside of the novice circuit.

Somersby is emerging as the main spoiler for this one and he's had several contests under his belt this season without a huge amount of success though he is taking a bit of a drop in class in this one and could be poised to capitalize.

Gauvain is no stranger to the chasing scene and the high-quality ten-year-old will be looking to follow up on his two wins this year but is always in danger of falling as he's put in the odd inconsistent performance here and there.

Wishfull Thinking will be lining up for the Philip Hobbs yard and he's also had plenty of experience this season – look for him to outperform expectations but he might be dependent on a mistake from some of the leading pack.

Forpadydeplasterer, I'm So Lucky and Oiseau De Nuit are also in the mix for this one but are trading at relatively lengthy price tags. In a wide-open contest like this, you may opt for a cheeky each-way on some of the outside selections.

If you're looking to place a bet on this one – look no further than the sponsor bookmaker BetVictor – the recently re-branded Victor Chandler site. They're offering up a very easy to redeem £25 free bet on this one and some of the best odds in the business!
