An ultra-competitive renewal of this Grade 2. MR VANGO, a C&D winner, went down fighting under a penalty to one who's unbeaten under Rules at Hereford in December and looks well worth a shot at this level on that evidence, so he's given the tentative vote. The King of Ryhope impressed at Exeter and is second choice, closely followed by Supreme Gift and Feel Good Inc.
