Verdict

FAVORI DE SIVOLA gets the nod in this tricky-looking contest. It could be that this is the time of year to catch him (winner of sole start in November last year and in 2020, returning from a break on each occasion) and he appears to be versatile ground-wise. Fairlawn Flyer is 3-3 over fences and has to be respected but he could do with plenty of rain, while Guetapan Collonges' jumping isn't foot-perfect and Reilly needs to improve now tackling fences. Boughtbeforelunch is therefore feared most.
