With Neptune Legend's participation in considerable doubt (declared at Windsor on Monday), this is best left to SOUTHBANK, who again wasn't seen to best effect when runner-up at Lingfield last month and Chris Gordon's charge can go one better having dropped back to his last winning mark. Last year's winner Sisters In The Sky and stablemate Symbol of Hope can fight out minor honours.
