Despite topweight Al Co looks generously treated having beaten a 139-rated rival during the winter and splitting two higher rated rivals last time. The only worry is that 3m, even around here, may not provide enough of a test. Classical Milano sidestepped a tougher challenge at Market Rasen and looks ready to win soon, but the vote goes to RED GIANT whose trainer normally makes her visits pay when travelling this far North. The Kelso winner was expected to build on a promising return last time but unseated his rider early. His jumping is usually sound and compensation awaits soon if not here.
