William Haggas took this event 12 months ago and looks to have a strong hand once more with preference for his reliable and mud-loving 4-y-o AL MUBHIR over form-pick Aldaary, who has yet to show his best so far this term. Biggles and Streets of Gold appeal as the pick of the rest for minor honours.
