Another competitive renewal of this traditional Bank Holiday race. After a spate of double-figure prices, three of the last four winners have been favourites and two of the last four winners have been trained by David O'Meara, who saddles both Waarif and Fayez this time. The former is in super form and looks a serious player again, but rain would be a bit of a concern. That is not the case, however, for GULF OF POETS, who looks to have been saved for softer conditions and can hopefully pick up where he left off in the spring. Course specialist Gurkha Friend is very much respected again, with Mikmak another for the short-list.
