Sporting Life forecast prices — published the night before the race. Top 3 highlighted as market favourites.

Pos	No.	Dr	Horse	Jockey	Trainer	Age	Wgt	Best decimal odds
3rd	1	—	Unexpected Party (G) FAV [T] Winner of the 2024 Grand Annual at Cheltenham and runner-up in the same race in 2025. Has done well since switched to hunters, scoring at Taunton and Haydock prior to finishing fourth in the 24-runner Foxhunters' at Aintree where he report…	Miss Heidi Palin	D Skelton	11	78 kg	1.44 4/9
1st	2	—	Arthur's Sixpence (G) [T] Won twice between the flags for Georgina Nicholls last year and performed well above market expectations when third in the 8-runner Newbury hunter won by Jeffery's Cross in March. Minor place money is a distinct possibility here.	Mr Harry Brown	G Nicholls	12	75.3 kg	7 6/1
2nd	3	—	Empire De Maulde (G) [T] Multiple point winner but yet to win a hunter and others make more appeal.	Mr Sean P O'Connor	R Varnham	12	75.3 kg	5.50 9/2
—	4	—	Fan De Blues (G) [T] Smart handicap chaser for Willie Mullins in 2022/23. Has shown he still retains a fair level of ability for his new yard and he's another with realistic place claims.	Mr Daniel Williams	Miss Henton	11	75.3 kg	7.50 13/2
4th	5	—	Hystery Bere (G) Fairly useful hurdle/chase winner at his best and he was a creditable third of 10 in an Exeter handicap chase on final run for Tom Symonds. Winner of one of his 2 starts between the flags since but he's opposable now pitched into a hunter.	Mr Joe Neal	J Neal	9	75.3 kg	12 11/1

Betting forecast: Unexpected Party (4/9), Empire De Maulde (9/2), Arthur's Sixpence (6/1), Fan De Blues (13/2), Hystery Bere (11/1)
