It could be worth siding with MAC N CHEESE on his first run for 15 months. He did well upon joining Gavin Cromwell in 2019 and has won on the back of a long absence in the past. Moratorium could do better now handicapping in this sphere for top connections and is worth considering, with Memory Tree another to keep in mind.
