Personally don't like any of the above. Other than Tiger Roll, I would highlight Battleoverdoyen, Glenloe, Sire De Berlais, Campeador,and Malone Road should it recover in time.

Really? 6/9 previous festival winners. Each to their own. Personally, I couldn't have Cracking Smart, Mengli Khan or Samcro on my mind, but I am very sweet on BBB for the 4 miler.
 
Duca de thaix.
mentioned several times before.
If that don't go very close in any handicap it's simply because it's not been entered due to injury etc.

I was that confident about him last year and he let me down come the day.
 
Flat to the max - FWinter maybe
 
Gordon isn’t as well equipped as he has been in recent years. His novice hurdlers have disappointed in the main bar Battleoverdoyen. Delta Work, Tiger Roll & Apples Jade are his three standout classy types we’ve seen thus far. The Storyteller will be tactically well placed to compete in a handicap & he may well have a few decent darts at the NHC.

He’ll have a few up his sleeve that we haven’t seen (or seen the best of) for sure.
 
Hardline has usurped MK as his main Arkle/JLT contender.
 
Should be hacking up against that lot. Hardline will still have the better form.
