Verdict

Rain is integral to maximising the chances of a couple of these horses and should it arrive by the bucketload (entirely possible) expect the classy hurdler Agrapart and the hat-trick seeking NUITS ST GEORGES to be slugging out the finish. The selection continues on an upward curve and a mere 2lb rise for his most recent success (2m, Goodwood) appears lenient. Of the remainder, Contrebasse is worthy of consideration as he tackles this 2m trip for the very first time while the 2014 Northumberland Plate winner Angel Gabrial has somewhat rolled back the years in recent weeks.
