BITASWEETSYMPHONY (engaged Southwell Wednesday) showed a lot more of his old verve when runner-up at Hereford last time so gets the vote off an unchanged mark. Concetto has cut little ice over hurdles but his form in Irish points suggests he could take a sizeable step forward now going chasing so he rates the chief threat. Rostello is another that could leave his previous effort well behind him and merits respect too.
