Nigel Twiston-Davies won this contest last year and ARTHUR'S GIFT gives him solid claims of landing another renewal after an impressive win over course and distance last time and the handicapper has only put him up 6lb for that effort. Lovenormoney will relish conditions and is still improving while Red Rising arrives with a less exposed profile than many of his rivals and should be capable of better.
