4/7
Multiple point winner who posted an encouraging second on hunter debut at Haydock (22.2f) in February and landed the odds with minimum of fuss at Leicester (20.1f, heavy) last time. Likely more to come yet.

11/4
Ridden more handily than previously this term and best effort yet for new yard when third of 6 in handicap at Kempton (20.5f) on penultimate start. Latest effort best excused and warrants respect on switch to hunter chasing.

11/2
Useful chaser, gaining last success in 3m handicap at Doncaster in December 2022. Shaped as if better for run when sixth in Taunton hunter (21.7f, soft) in January and holds solid claims.

Iskandar Pecos (4/7), Before Midnight (11/4), Senior Citizen (11/2), Boughtbeforelunch (50/1), Dalahast (66/1), Hazard Collonges (66/1)

Verdict

ISKANDAR PECOS has looked a good prospect in a couple of starts under Rules and is fancied to take the finale. Senior Citizen and Before Midnight should give him plenty to think about, though.
