GRAND PARADIS had been in excellent form until finding the Plate at the Cheltenham Festival too much to handle and is fancied to open his account in this sphere now back in these calmer waters. Aione shaped well after a long absence when runner-up on his chasing bow at Gowran and is feared most, with the selection's stablemate and chasing-newcomer Old Town Garde appealing as the pick of the remainder.
