It's perhaps worth taking the view that GENERAL BUX simply needed the run on his recent return from an absence as he'd be more than capable of winning a race of this nature if retaining anything like his old ability. Costly Dream has built up a fairly solid record in similar events this autumn and may prove next best ahead of Asking For Answers.
