Verdict

JUAN LES PINS arrives here in fine form and looks the most solid option in a wide-open race. Arantes Nascimento usually does his racing over further nowadays but he's a consistent sort and the anticipated strong pace could bring him into play, with Dicko The Legend, who might've won granted a better passage at Southwell last week, is also a likely player if able to break on terms.
