Raced wide, chased leader until 4th (water), chased leading pair until outpaced after 4 out, ridden and struggling before next, rallied last, stayed on run-in, almost snatched 3rd tchd 5/1
Top Notch (4/5), Double Shuffle (9/2), Art Mauresque (6/1), O O Seven (6/1), Alcala (16/1), Sadler's Risk (33/1)
TOP NOTCH can put a disappointing effort last time out behind him by recording his third victory of the season in this six runner Grade 2 contest. The forecast underfoot conditions should suit Nicky Henderson's charge and he is taken to get the better of Double Shuffle who showed good form in the spring while Art Mauresque can finish third dropping in trip.
