It may pay to look towards the head of the handicap here and preference is for KARAM ALBAARI. This C&D winner wasn't far beaten at this course last time and could improve for the step back in trip. He looks worth another try based on his recent form ahead of the well-treated Gracious George and two time C&D winner Embankment.
