Verdict

NICOLE'S MILAN was running well over fences last term until unseating his rider over 3m6f here but this previous 2m5f winner could find this trip absolutely ideal and after a recent pipe-opener over 2m4f he should be ready to make a bold bid here. In form Se Mo Laoch will be popular after two close second and is an obvious danger while unexposed novice Guided By You is another of interest particularly now stepping up in trip.
