Verdict

Lots with chances but AURIGNY MILL impressed greatly when going in at Newbury recently for his new stable and edges the vote from Nicky Henderson's progressive mare Break My Soul. Wetherby-scorer Williethebuilder, the handily-weighted Afadil and last year's victor Gin Coco are others well worthy of consideration in a highly competitive event.
