There's been some well documented flops by market leaders in this race during its 34-year history, but two of the last three favourites have won and six of the last eight winners have gone off no bigger than 7-2. Last year's tenacious triumph was by 10-1 shot Tea For Two and although one has to forgive him his last two runs, he may do better back here. Definitly Red is another who may appreciate a return to Liverpool but MIGHT BITE brings by far the best form to the table and can win this if his excursions in the Gold Cup have not taken too much out of him. Bristol De Mai could be the main danger if a recent wind operation has worded the oracle.
