LANESBOROUGH was very impressive on his Doncaster reappearance and is taken to cope with a 14 lb hit from the handicapper. A Pai de Nom is another very progressive sort and is likely to make a bold bid to provide Dan Skelton with a hat-trick of wins in this race. French Ship, Beat The Bat and Fasol also make the shortlist.
