The Two Amigos and BIG MEADOW clashed at Exeter last month with the former jumping well to demolish his rivals. However, the weights here favour the selection particularly as he was making his seasonal bow and was ridden with more restraint than usual. The champion jockey is a significant booking and he can turn the tables here. Lac Sacre is hard to win with nowadays but he has form on this ground over marathon trips and he could make the frame again at a decent price.
