BIOTIC finished a close fourth in this contest in 2016 and can take this years renewal off a 9lb lower mark here. The selection has been out of form in the main since then but his trainer has had a couple of winners of late including one here last week. Second place can go the way of Cape Banjo who has been running well recently including when finishing runner-up at Kempton last month while Cordite ran well over C&D last month and can claim third once more.
