Verdict

With pretty significant doubts surrounding the other three, AIRTOTHETHRONE and Enjoy Your Life are the pair to concentrate on. The latter has plenty going for him eased in class here but Tim Vaughan's charge had yet to be asked for his effort when exiting at the third-last at Lingfield and, provided he is none the worse for that tumble, the 8-y-o could have the edge back at the scene of his breakthrough success last season. Mumbo Jumbo will be a threat if able to bounce back but it's a big 'if'.

  1. AIRTOTHETHRONE (IRE)
  2. ENJOY YOUR LIFE (FR)
  3. MUMBO JUMBO (IRE)
