Tudors Treasure is a course specialist but doesn’t look the force of old. Eros has something to prove having been pulled up last time but Judex Lefou came right back to form at Ludlow and could easily go one better here. WINDANCE is sure to improve on his fencing bow at Uttoxeter when he was returning from a long break. He’s been very lightly raced and is preferred to a similar type in Lagonda. Lazy Sunday showed promise at Worcester in October but has disappointed since.
