Selected odds by:
Took record to three from five over 2m with an emphatic 5L win at Lingfield last week and under a 5lb penalty he looks sure to take all of the beating again here.
Chelmsford winner in first try over 2m and since run well over same distance and 1m6f there which bodes well for 2m on the same surface here. Little to find to go well and with a visor added he could find improvement.
Smart hurdler and chaser has won over C&D although it was way back in 2014 and indeed he hasn't run on the Flat since that season. May need this ahead of targets over fences.
Won recently over hurdles but is a maiden on the Flat and was well held in most recent Flat races so probably best watched here.
Likable 15-time winner (11 on AW) but losses starting to rack up now as he approaches his 12th birthday and he is less consistent than in his pomp now.
Looked well worth a second try over 2m when gaining his first career success over 1m6f at Lingfield latest where she was strong in the finish and won going away. 4lb rise not unfair and she is highly respected here.
Lightly raced maiden looked a non-stayer over 1m6f latest so would have to be considered a highly doubtful stayer over 2m here and therefore one to avoid.
C&D winner on his first try over 2m last week and although he is under a 6lb penalty he was due a 2lb drop so is in effect just 4lb higher here. Highly respected and the sort his trainer is infamous for running up a sequence with.
Good third in a handicap at Lingfield in August but disappointed on fibresand at Southwell (1m6f) subsequently. Return to this venue a positive but others more appealing.
Maiden of 27 races occasionally makes the frame as he did at Catterick latest but on balance he is an unappealing proposition.
Belated signs of promise at Chelmsford before he was completely tailed off at Southwell last time out which tempers enthusiasm.
Steps up markedly in trip having raced mostly over around 1m4f and with little effect. Leap of faith needed now.
Found a level of consistency over 1m4f-1m6f of late albeit without success but tries 2m for the first time and gets headgear added now so reasons to think she might find extra.
Yet to get competitive in nine starts over a variety of trips on both turf and AW, ensuring there's not much to be confident about here as he steps up to 2m.
Forecasts
Casa Comigo (13/8), Percy's Prince (10/3), Barca (11/2), Spring Run (8/1), Doune Castle (16/1), The Young Master (16/1), Yasir (25/1), Demophon (25/1), Hattaab (25/1), Sinndarella (33/1), Bird To Love (50/1), Guaracha (50/1), Daniel Dravot (50/1), Brinkleys Katie (100/1)
CASA COMIGO has made a hugely impressive start to his career since going up to 2m and he looks seriously well in here under a 5lb penalty having hosed up at Lingfield latest. In a race with several appealing sorts however he may not have things his own way. Percy's Prince is the sort his trainer excels with and chief among the dangers although fellow last-time-out winner Spring Run is also feared.
