Held up in touch towards rear, closed on outside 3 out, soon outpaced, went 3rd and plugged on 2 out, no chance with winner, mistake last, 2nd briefly flat tchd 10/3
Quothquan (3/1), Eragon De Chanay (10/3), Shambra (7/2), Born Legend (11/2), Erick Le Rouge (6/1), Royale Zanzibar (8/1)
ERAGON DE CHANAY scored at Ffos Las in October and has unsurprisingly come up shy in races won by Apple's Shakira at Cheltenham and We Have A Dream at Doncaster since. Gary Moore's charge wasn't disgraced in either run and can get back on track here. Shambra is also eased in grade and rates the chief danger for last year's winning trainer Lucy Wadham ahead of Royale Zanzibar and Quothquan.
