IMPERO showed enough when placed twice last autumn to suggest that a race like this should be within his grasp so he gets the nod to make a winning return. Spasiba rates an obvious threat after his encouraging debut third at Cork last month, while good hurdler Gatsby Grey should also be up to making an impact on his Flat debut.
