Hawkes Run Put away with a view to being aimed at some bigger prizes after recording a brace of successes during the Summer. Looks the type who will be able to overcome a double penalty and is the one they will all have to pass.
Chicago Bulls (IRE) Modest form on the flat but is well related and the step up in trip may bring about some improvement.
Fast King (FR) Interesting runner for Phillip Hobbs who should be watched in the betting exchanges.
Gin Palace (IRE) Improved when upped in trip on the flat and the booking of Tony McCoy takes the eye. One for the list.
Greenhope (IRE) Seems to handle any ground but has questions to answer about his stamina.
Mister Putt (USA) Related to several winners on the Continent but his efforts on the flat are hardly inspiring.
Royal Robbie Well beaten on hurdles bow at Kempton last month and is best watched at the moment.
Silvaani (USA) Best watched until an assessment can be made.
Miss Jeff (FR) Won on Soft ground in France but was a bit of a disappointment when backed at very short odds at Stratford in July. However, he is open to improvement and may well give Hawkes Run the most to do.
Kaluga (IRE) Another whose stamina doubts make her opposable.
