Verdict

Paul Nicholls has won this seven times since the turn of the century and holds a strong hand here with last years winner Present Man back for another crack and both El Bandit and CAPTAIN BUCK'S holding strong claims. Of the three the last-named is preferred as he was given a little too much to do here last time and looked unlucky. He should be fitter here and represents the best value of the three. Bigbadjohn was back to his best here last time on ground that wouldn't have suited so he has to be considered off just 2lb higher with rain in the forecast. Last-time out winners Allelu Alleluia and Fingreontheswitch could both do better and complete the shortlist in a cracking renewal.
  1. Captain Buck's
  2. Present Man
  3. Allelu Alleluia
