A host with chances in what is always one of the most competitive handicaps of the season. ARRIVEDERCI looked set to play a big part in a warm race at Haydock when departing at the third last so is perhaps worth another chance to show he's still on a good mark. Buzz, October's C&D 1-2 Kid Commando and Malaya and Harry Fry's Lightly Squeeze, who has had a wind op, head the many possible dangers.
