Firenze Rosa won this last year when 12lb higher but has not reproduced that form in a dozen starts since and was behind subsequent third Toni's A Star last time at Windsor. Major Pusey will have the rails to help but ZAC BROWN (NAP) also appears to have a good draw and Charlie Wallis’ eight-year-old should be up to winning this with the possibility that the going could be quicker than forecast. Broughton Excels will have come on for his run at Yarmouth and rates the danger.
