Quadriller made it third-time lucky over fences at Fontwell last month but is no world-beater and 5lb higher here. First-time blinkers might be the key to HAWAII FIVE NIL, who is only a pound higher than when successful over hurdles in June. Jonjo O'Neill's charge gets the nod with dual course winner Zama Zama beaten 10 lengths off a lower mark at Newton Abbot last time. Johnny Og was tailed off on his only previous run over fences under Rules while it's difficult to fancy Macarthur on what he's shown so far.
