Day Of Roses was an easy winner at Fontwell over the weekend and he could go well from just 7lb higher but there's a small concern this run could come too soon so BRAQUEUR D'OR is narrowly preferred on his second start for Paul Nicholls. His jumping appeared to have improved at Warwick last time and his trainer will be keen to build on that run now. Chinatown Boy may have been in need of his comeback run and it will be interesting to see if there's any market support for him this time around.
