Unsurprisingly a host arrive with claims and with that in mind a chance is taken on one at the foot of the weights in the shape of THE LAST DAY. A former C&D winner, he's obviously fragile but highlighted he still has plenty to offer prior to falling on return at Haydock in January (looked likely winner). Clearly on a handy mark, he can go well, with Frero Banbou, Before Midnight, King d'Argent and Grand Annual winner Global Citizen heading up a long shortlist of dangers.
