Champion trainer Paul Nicholls has won the previous two renewals of this and boasts a formidable record in bumpers at the track. His €52,000 purchase Glenlivet therefore is afforded maximum respect on debut. A Book Of Intrigue has two wins already but will want to be well-improved to concede the weight now, while Cubao is also penalised for a winning debut at Ludlow in May. Any money behind the newcomers needs noting, with Tom Lacey's bumper record ensuring Saint Arvans is on the radar but previous C&D runner-up GASTARA is nicely-related and, if improving from that April effort, should have valid claims again.
