Another where there a few of them will fancy their chances, such as Theflyingportrait, who is not one to write off after last time, and Red Spinner, who could benefit from this drop in class. None of the others can be ruled out with any great confidence, though MOUNTAIN KING makes appeal as being a decent value bet. This is only the second time since last year's C&D win that he has tackled this sort of trip again and that, plus the presence of Richard Johnson and a 3lb lower mark might just see a different result.
