ONE LAST TANGO was a good third in this 12 months ago and looks set for another bold bid after his promising fourth at Navan last month. That Navan race was won by Fortunedefortunata and a 9 lb rise for that is unlikely to prevent another prominent showing from Gordon Elliott's charge. Still Ciel and Conyers Hill are others to consider.
