Verdict

ECLAIR D'AINAY took apart a useful field at Wetherby over Christmas, a return to front-running tactics suiting him nicely. Such a ride brings out the best in him and he could be hard to catch again here despite a 7 lb rise. Frero Banbou confirmed his return to form with a fine run at Cheltenham 6 weeks ago and looks a big threat. Le Ligerien is also a player if backing up his Chepstow performance.
