This trip looks much too short nowadays for Sir Chauvelin but What's The Story got back to winning ways over course and distance last month, though has been raised 5lb. Cockalorum is starting to look very well treated, however, though was behind Chichester at York last time. FIRST IMPRESSION ran a cracker at York 11 days ago considering it was his first outing since May. If he’s fully recovered, John Quinn’s charge could be the one to be on in a competitive renewal as the rain-softened ground may not be ideal for recent Haydock winner Love Is Golden. Al Mubhir has become a little disappointing while the trip is an unknown for Chester specialist Revich.
