Betting Forecast: 1/4 Douvan, 15/2 Fox Norton, 12/1 God’s Own, 14/1 Special Tiara, 33/1 Sir Valentino, 33/1 Garde La Victoire, 33/1 Top Gamble, 33/1 Traffic Fluide, 50/1 Simply Ned, 66/1 Sizing Granite

Betting tip: Douvan will be a very strong odds-on favourite to win this race and deservedly so – 13 wins from 13 starts, winner of the 2016 Arkle Challenge Trophy and the 2015 Supreme Novices’ Hurdle.  Fox Norton will be the main danger and subject to each-way support.
