In depth
Verdict
Plenty of these have a chance but top weight FLYING POWER makes most appeal. His winning run came to end in better company over track and trip last time but he failed by only a half-length and can return to winning ways in this grade. Sir Boss has been in fine form in lesser handicaps and is closely matched with recent winner Illustrious Forest while the latter had Kames Park behind last time. Winning hurdler Monte Cavallo has a shout back on the Flat but Rapid Heat Lad drops back down in trip and On The Hoof is unproven over this far.
