Forecasts

Jonbon (2/11), Boothill (9/2), Unexpected Party (22/1), Honneur D'Ajonc (100/1)

Verdict

It's tough to look beyond JONBON, who couldn't have been any more impressive on his highly-anticipated chasing debut at Warwick last month, and with Nicky Henderson's star likely to prove one of the best in the division this campaign, he should take all the beating. Boothill put up a smart performance on just his third start over fences when winning at Ascot a fortnight ago and he looks the most obvious selection for forecast purposes.

  1. JONBON (FR)
  2. BOOTHILL (IRE)
  3. UNEXPECTED PARTY (FR)
