Verdict

DINOBLUE could barely have shaped with more encouragement when runner-up in the Grand Annual at the Cheltenham Festival last time and will surely be hard to beat here. Aarons Day shaped as if back in form in a Naas Grade 3 last time and is interesting having a rare spin over this trip, whilst handicap-newcomer Mount Brown appeals as a potential improver.
