In depth

Verdict

Classic Henri went close at Sedgefield last time and looks sure to be winning soon. He finished third to Bene Lad over C&D on his penultimate start and can confirm the form with today's rivals Winter Alchemy, Ravensbill and Crackerjack Lad who all finished behind him on that occasion. KINGS GUARD had Bene Lad behind when a cosy winner over today's trip at Newcastle and on that form should come out best here. Dropped in class, Alistair Whillans' charge can defy a 6lb rise in the weights and gets the vote.
