There hasn’t been a three-year-old winner in this since 2013 but that situation could be alleviated today with NAVAJO PASS looking a likely type for this sort of race with no doubts about the ground and with the trip being in his favour on handicap debut. Beechwood Jude another from that age group should be noted as one of the main dangers having run well here over shorter the last twice. Of the older brigade Contrebasse had been a little unlucky/frustrating prior to winning last time although he may well have had the run of the race on that occasion. Top weight Celestial Force will be even more dangerous if left alone in front with his recent form stacking up well.
