Verdict

A fiercely=competitive handicap but SHAN BLUE has a lot less on his plate than when a well-held sixth in the Ryanair Chase and can capitalise on a very attractive mark back in handicap company. Kempton-scorer Cap du Nord is another weighted to go well for the in-form Christian Williams team, while Ultima-fourth Tea Clipper figures high on the shortlist too.

  1. SHAN BLUE (IRE)
  2. CAP DU NORD (FR)
  3. TEA CLIPPER (IRE)
