Very useful chaser in his pomp, but not the force of old and most recent efforts have left much to be desired.

Forecasts

Rebel Royal (11/8), Armattiekan (15/8), Corri Lindo (11/4), Generation Gap (3/1), Outcrop (7/2), Voix D'Eau (5/1), Pass Rusher (10/1)

ARMATTIEKAN had a terrific time of it last season and found only the improving Dog of War too good over C&D last time, so he's taken to get his head back in front. Generation Gap is a danger on the back of his Exeter success and Rebel Royal looked threatening when coming down 3 out at Kempton last month, so he can't be ruled out.
