The form of the Andrew Slattery yard tips the balance in favour of CONVARA, to get off the mark for connections at the third time of asking. The trainer is already scoring and hitting the frame at this meeting and his Roderic O'Connor gelding can see off the potential challengers in the shape of John McConnell's Hannon and West Coast Time who switches to the Flat for the first time in 702 days.
