MOTDEPAS was bang there for a long way over 19f in a deeper race than this here last time so might be worth siding with back over a shorter trip. San Agustin has the profile of one who could do better in handicaps, while Mi Laddo was a bit better than the result suggests back over hurdles last time and is also on the shortlist.
