Lots with question marks against them but MANSFIELD is a reliable sort who arrives in good nick and can also boast a C&D victory so he is given the vote. Course-winner Arnoul of Metz is weighted to have a big say on his yard debut for Luke McJannet but a long absence rather tempers enthusiasm. First Excel appeals as the pick of the remainder and a solid place prospect.
