Question marks over a few of these so it could pay to side with NORTH STAR OSCAR to make a winning return as he enjoyed a fine 2019 and has had a wind op since signing off with a good fourth at Hereford off a career-high mark. Henry's Joy got back on track when runner-up at Cartmel and is weighted to go close again, while Beneagles is also on a handy mark if his yard switch sparks a resurgence.
