11/5
Proved as good as ever when landing the Portland at Doncaster last term and shaped better than the bare result on return at Newmarket (6f) last month, finishing with running left. Not discounted.

9/2
6-y-o who maintained his 100% Haydock record over 5f in August. Creditable 4 lengths fifth behind Stone of Destiny in the Portland final start but he meets that rival on 7 lb better terms on return.

17/2
Four-time winner on turf last season who has performed with credit on 2 of his 4 starts on AW since the turn of the year. Seemingly not 100% at Newbury last time and bounce back rates likely here.

2/1
Signed off 3-y-o campaign with a cracking third in valuable York handicap and resumed progress to score at Kempton (6f) last month. Not so good at Ripon latest but no surprise to see a good showing.

6/1
Tough sort who regained winning thread at Wolverhampton (5f) in January and hit the frame all 4 starts on AW since. Effective on turf and no surprise to see him give another good account of himself.

Forecasts

Desert Safari (2/1), Stone Of Destiny (11/5), Mountain Peak (9/2), Lihou (6/1), Blue De Vega (17/2)

Verdict

BLUE DE VEGA needs forgiving a lesser effort at Newbury in April, yet some of his very best efforts last season came in similar small-field affairs and, with his rider taking off a valuable 5 lb, he could be worth chancing to bounce back. Desert Safari and Stone of Destiny head up the dangers.

  1. BLUE DE VEGA (GER)
  2. DESERT SAFARI (IRE)
  3. STONE OF DESTINY
