Typically competitive fare with the narrow vote in favour of CASANOVA. His losing run understandably tempers enthusiasm but he went agonisingly close to bucking that trend from his much-reduced mark when third over C&D 5 weeks ago and this could be the day he puts it all together again. Blues Emperor seemingly wasn't 100% in the Lincoln in March and he can bounce back. Chazzesmee and Shayzann are others to note.
