Verdict

Lots with chances so at the likely odds it is worth siding with the well-weighted THE WREKIN to make light of his absence and continue Henry Daly's fine recent run. Irish raider Vee Dancer heads the list of dangers and rates a big threat, especially if the market speaks in his favour, although Jubilee Express can also have a say now his stamina is drawn out more and in-form duo Franco d'Aunou and Getalead need shortlisting too.

  3. JUBILEE EXPRESS (FR)
