Turbo Du Ranch clearly didn't get home when tried over 2m6f at Huntingdon last time. A repeat of an earlier second over 2m at Plumpton would put him bang in contention here while Starsky Des Mottes will have gleaned considerable benefit from a comeback run at Ascot. Sutton Storm showed promise in his debut third over hurdles at Wincanton but it's difficult to get away from SHANGANI, who ran the useful four-year-old Asaid to a couple of lengths on his first start for Venetia Williams at Towcester and will strip fitter here.
