Verdict

Charlie Mann had last year’s runner-up and will be hoping Cody Wyoming can go one better, though this trip may stretch his stamina on past evidence. He did, however, have As De Fer behind when scoring over 2m4f at Lingfield in November. Blue Kascade appears to have lost his way but Sunny Ledgend won at Leicester last month, though now looks a few pounds too high. SAROQUE hasn’t managed a victory this season but has been thereabouts since the turn of the year and is unquestionably well treated nowadays - he should be up to winning this if he retains a fraction of his former ability.
