FRODON had an official rating of 167 after winning a Down Royal Grade 1 on his reappearance last season. His three subsequent runs were underwhelming but he could just be a notch above this opposition if bouncing back to anywhere his best after a breathing operation. Lord Accord was an easy winner at Cheltenham last month and is feared most ahead of last year's runner-up Potterman.
