Dan Skelton won this last year and may hold the key again, with HARRY LOWES getting the verdict. The selection wasn't seen to anywhere near best effect on his previous start in a handicap and remains unexposed stepping back into this company. Stablemate The Mighty Celt is also shortlisted on the back of his eye-catching Fred Winter effort, alongside strong-travelling hold-up horse Star of Guiting.
