First run at this track after racing in the UK. Ran well from the front but faded out late over 10f. Will have a good chance now dropped to 9f with a similar run coming. Won twice over a mile last summer and holds main rival on previous form lines.

Strong form claims for this Godolphin-owned 3-year-old colt, who drops back to 6f after racing over 7f, winning and going close. His front-running style of racing will suit this track and gets my nap vote. Ticks plenty of boxes to get the win.

Hard to assess on bare form, but this 7-y-o has potential to do better. Rated 99. Trained by Dan Skelton, who can improve young chasers. Could see a much better showing now on second run back from a wind op, and cheekpieces tried today too. The drop back from 3 miles to 1m 9f looks a good idea.

Ex-Nichols-trained 8-y-o who has won a bumper and a hurdle race and is yet to shine over fences. Has potential on just his third chase start here to do better. Will be improved by the recent run, when he looked in need of the outing after a long layoff. Interesting joining the Henderson yard, who place horses well at this track.
