SUPREMELY WEST was well clear with Gwennie May Boy (subsequently won big handicap at Aintree) on his final outing last season and shaped as if he'd returned in top form when third at Hexham 70 days ago, so he looks the one to beat for all that several others arrive in good order. Half Track and Magical King are both obvious dangers.
