VISERION showed plenty of ability in his novice campaign last term and bounced back to form last time out at Carlisle. He wasn't beaten far and gets 1lb back so can only go better here, he gets the nod. While likely soft ground is a concern for Cape Of Glory conditions aren't likely to be bottomless so he can't be ruled out in current form. Dark And Dangerous is one of a pair of course specialists not to be taken lightly back at their favourite venue.
