Verdict

RED RISING looks nicely handicapped on his Carlisle win and it will be a major surprise if that's as good as he is. He really wouldn't have to improve much, if any, to take this, and from the Dan Skelton yard, fitness is not likely to be an issue. Malapie is another that still looks well handicapped on his second to Lady Buttons last year and still showed signs of greenness when winning at Southwell. The fact he burst a blood vessel last time out will be a worry, but if he's okay today, can take the silver medal. Western Climate may be best of the rest.
  1. Red Rising
  2. Malapie
