Commodore enjoyed a bloodless success at Warwick on New Year's Eve, his first run since a wind operation, and needs plenty respecting again but Venetia Williams' charge hasn't been missed by the assessor for his win. Instead, this can go to top-weight AMI DESBOIS, who is becoming consistent and will relish conditions, as he showed when just failing over C&D last time. Bob Mahler is another that will relish seeing the mud fly and can go well.
