BABY BELLINI can land the spoils in a race that shouldn't take a lot of winning, building on his Galway win in September off a 5lb lower mark. Bective Cave for trainer Matthew Smith can emerge as the biggest danger, with Longtimeincejaspr, Hughies Bay and Feagreen Native all capable of hitting the frame.
