The form of ACTING LASS' second at Hereford last time has been franked multiple times since and he may have just bumped into something a bit special in the shape of Finian's Oscar. Unlikely to be anything quite that good in here and he can stamp his credentials for the Neptune by taking this. Beyond Conceit couldn't have won more impressively last time out but there has to be a concern that his lengthy lay-off prior to that run could still take its toll. Topofthegame is better than his fourth at Cheltenham last time out but the ground may have been a factor in that defeat and may face similar conditions here so De Dollar Man is taken to be the best of the rest having proven himself in rain softened conditions.
