    Verdict

    Nicky Henderson won this last year and his One Lucky Lady has every chance of following up. She looks a better bet than stablemate Megalypos as she's still coming down the weights and will enjoy the good ground. Rayak won at Newbury in February but didn't run up to that form at Warwick three weeks ago. First Avenue and Madness Light would have a chance on their best form but TOP CAT HENRY ran his best race so far for Richard Newland when fourth at Haydock and a repeat of that effort off the same mark would probably suffice. Long Lunch is preferred to Flute Bowl of the others.
