Beseiged returned to form at Wetherby last time and looks set to land this prize, Borehill Joker and All Bleevable are also expected to run well. The selection hasn't visited the winners enclosure since landing a hat-trick in 2003. However he has been slipping nicely down the handicap and that recent third behind Mr Bigglesworth suggests he could be ready to resume winning ways. Borehill Joker has to be a threat to all having put in two excellent efforts recently. He still looks on a fair mark and should be involved in the finish once again. All Bleevable is not the most reliable of customers but he has very strong claims on his second behind Dark Society at Fakenham in January. In a very open affair Lone Soldier and Rainbow Warrior look the pick of the light weights, but on this occasion we look to the top of the handicap for the winner and that is Beseiged.
