Course winner who was well held on first outing since leaving Oliver Greenall at Lingfield 20 days ago. Will need to leave that well behind but has been given a chance by the handicapper.

Forecasts

Road Warrior (5/2), The Unit (7/2), Wildfire Warrior (4/1), Zalvados (9/2), Mulcahys Hill (6/1), Tiquer (10/1)

Verdict

ROAD WARRIOR thrived on racing during the second half of last season and it is a similar story this time around, so he appeals as the most solid option. Course-winner Zalvados has been given a chance by the handicapper and is second choice.
