Whitsundays is likely to be better than last time, both in account of fitness, and over this shorter trip, whilst previous course winners Bandol (8lb higher and up in trip) and King Of The Dark (inconsistent) look up against it here. It's debatable as to the strength of Chasma's form at Wetherby (with the exposed Shy) in close proximity, so the vote goes to THE MYTHOLOGIST who was probably unlucky not to win at Market Rasen last month. He drops in trip, but granted a clear round under this talented claimer (takes over from Richard Johnson), he can get off the mark over fences at the third attempt.
