In the frame behind some smart novices in three runs so far over hurdles, SCIPION looks to be facing a straightforward task in this. Phantom Getaway has also shown ability but is rated 11lb inferior to his market rival. Mac Be Lucky is preferred to Rabble Rouser of the others but looks to have no chance of winning barring accidents.
