Trainer Nicky Henderson has his yard in rude health at the moment and looks to have a stranglehold on this event via OK CORRAL and Whatswrongwithyou. The former has to carry a penalty but given his form so far he looks a fair way ahead of these with his stablemate having to learn to settle a bit better to be seen at his best. There are a few others that have shown promise and can make their mark in the future with Way Out West, What’s Occurring and Forgot To Ask all capable of getting involved.
