DA BABA ELEPHANT was in good form last year and he can resume winning ways on his return from a break. The selection has a leading jockey booked to ride in this and can see off Ever So Much who is well handicapped on his old hurdles form while Sharney Sike, who is 2/2 here can finish third this time.
