CRYSTAL GUARD and International Law occupied the first 2 spots in a C&D handicap 10 days ago and they may well come to the fore again. The former is unexposed for this yard and may have more to offer on the AW, so he shades the vote. Of the rest, Alnwick Castle could be a different proposition tackling a more suitable trip on handicap debut.
