Things didn't pan out favourably for HELNWEIN when only fourth behind Vincenzo at Windsor, but this promises to be a more strongly-run race and Alan King's charge is given another chance to build on the abundant promise he showed when chasing home the progressive Telepathique on debut in this sphere at Warwick. Vincenzo did little wrong at Cheltenham since and should give another good account, while Inedit Star may well reverse Aintree placings with Doyen du Bar and also make his presence felt.
