The progressive GRAND VOYAGE made a very encouraging start over fences when a close second at Carlisle on return and is well up to wining a race like this. Travail d'Orfevre has a similar profile to the selection so rates the main threat, while Stolen Money makes the most appeal of the chasing debutants.
