Verdict

BLACK FRIDAY is a previous course winner and given he was runner-up on last season's reappearance from 7 lb higher, he's certainly weighted to go very well on reappearance. Alpine Sierra is also very capable fresh so he commands respect, with Bell Shot perhaps the pick of those with recent form to call upon.
