Plenty of these are potentially ahead of their marks, including RAAFEDD, who very much looked the part when winning his novice at Newbury last month. He tops the shortlist ahead of Fearnot, who booked his place for this with an impressive C&D success 6 weeks ago. Arctic Grey and Parole d'Oro complete the shortlist.
