Nouveau Cheval makes a quick reappearance after last week¿s Plumpton fiasco and should be capable of getting herself back on the right track. She ran up a nice little sequence last term and is a reliable yardstick in this grade of contest. Polish Baron has been well held in handicaps of late and should fare better at this level. But preference is for In Question, who barring a poor run last time, holds the best recent form. And a chance can be taken that a return to the smaller obstacles can quickly erase the memory of his last outing.
