The handicapper is still struggling to keep tabs on SHRUBLAND since the switch to Dan Skelton, and this four-year-old produced a clear career best when just unable to down Cosmic Diamond at Huntingdon earlier in the month. He wasn't at all fazed by the longer trip and on his seemingly preferred decent ground didn't go under without a protracted battle. His mark has risen again (3lb) and he is up in trip marginally once more, but he rates as the most obvious selection in a race where few can be fancied. The likeliest danger is the C&D winner Crookstown. He should be competitive at his favoured venue off a mark of 110, judged upon his 3L second to Chic Theatre in December 2016 (from a 4lb higher mark).
