In depth
Verdict
Bellosguardo was hampered early on and never got competitive at Kempton last time but warrants respect on his form this season. Call It On races over hurdles for the first time since September but can't be ignored in a weak race as Majorca King has become disappointing and Ballymoat looked very one-paced at Market Rasen earlier this month. Award Winner does best when A P McCoy is in the saddle while Crescent Beach may need this but LOST IN NEWYORK should be approaching peak fitness now and could be worth an interest at the likely odds. He twice showed up well over 2m last month and should do even better now upped in distance.
