As ever with sellers, it may pay to tread carefully, but LAKE CHAPALA has obvious claims in a race where good recent form is hard to find. He looks more straightforward than a few of these and can score again. Akula has a poor win record, which puts you off for win purposes, but he's likely to make a decent first of this from the front and can hang on for second. Keep an eye on any money for Nebula Storm, who hasn't shown much lately but is capable in the grade.
