Trixster (1/1), Senor Lombardy (6/4), Ard Chros (6/1), Cairnshill (20/1), Asking For Answers (33/1), Buddha Scheme (40/1)

Verdict

An interesting contest awaits. Ard Chros appears to have the make-up to win over fences, but whether that will be first time remains to be seen. Buddha Scheme is another of interest, though again we will learn more after this race. Senor Lombardy would probably be the one to beat if back to his novices' hurdling form, and support for him would fuel confidence that he is ready for this. However, with not much to find on the form book and a little less to prove, perhaps TRIXSTER looks a safer bet, if there is such a thing on chase debut.
