CASI CRUDO is knocking firmly on the door, so Alex Hales' 6-y-o is worth chancing to add to his sole previous success. The main threat may emerge from For Pleasure, who was last seen in this sphere when winning at Haydock in December and arrives fit from a spin on the Flat. Bluegrass looks best of the remainder.
