Colin Tizzard's HIGHEST SUN looks to have sound claims from a reduced mark here with Jonjo O'Neill further easing his burden. He ran into some good horses last season and has winning C&D form in his locker already, which should count for plenty. There are lots of dangers, with Crooks Peak likely to fair better under positive tactics and the likes of Quoi De Neuf and Gortroe Joe capable of better things. The long-absent Diamond Guy needs monitoring on his comeback.
