Chambard won the Fulke Walwyn Kim Muir here last month but is effectively 12lb higher with Lucy Turner replaced in the saddle by Charlie Deutsch. Sam Twiston-Davies gave Undersupervision a confident ride to beat MISTER MALARKY at Doncaster and the runner-up is only a pound better off. But that was a better effort from the latter following wind surgery and he could turn the tables here if Harry Bannister can persuade him to put his best foot forward. Storm Control started favourite for that race but was pulled up. He is clearly better than that and can’t be ignored while Captain Cattistock showed a glimpse of his old form when successful over 4m at Musselburgh and is another to consider.
