Robin Des Mana carries a health warning as Gordon Elliot trained him to win a poor seller and his current yard had their fingers burnt with another of his cast offs, Tajseer, in 2016. Competition has been well placed to land a couple of similar races and earn a rating of 121. That sets the standard but he has to concede 14lb to Gary Moore's newcomer WEST DRIVE who was rated in the mid-80s on the Flat and should strip fitter for a recent pipeopener at Sandown.
