SHALIANZI just keeps doing enough and requires plenty of urging. Andy Glassonbury has ridden him to both victories this season but Jamie Moore is an able substitute and can drive the gelding to another win. Almagest was upsides the winner when falling at Warwick last week and should go close if that hasn't affected his confidence. Our Folly got off the mark over hurdles at Chepstow last month and is another for the short-list but King's Song was tailed off at Hexham after winning at Worcester. Chapel Garden sports a visor on his return to action but is probably best watched.
