If you're having an each-way punt on an outsider
Then King Fontaine at 66/1 might be hoping for a place.

If you're thinking of backing something with a shorter price, I'd be looking at either Ballabriggs (14/1) or Silver By Nature (14/1)

But the GN is such a lottery, you might as well just close your eyes and pick a horse at random.
