CAPTAIN POWER is comfortably the top rated horse in this field and despite a disappointing campaign he has a very good chance at the weights to end the winless streak. Eacharn can boast the best recent form so he rates a clear danger with strong form overall on this surface. Ar Saoirse had excuses latest behind Eacharn and can be expected to be much closer this time.
