The 2015 winner Lamb Or Cod would have to be given a chance here off this mark and this is certainly easier than some of his recent assignments. Upswing for all his recent upturn in form has something to prove still especially in the jumping department and his price looks a little on the short side here. Virak is starting to look well handicapped along with COOLOGUE who on this better ground and with a possible easy lead will be worth taking a chance with.
