Those with racecourse experience make no appeal with Storm Nelson perhaps best of them. Malcolm Jefferson sent out last year’s winner and looks to have a good chance with the newcomer BOY NAMED SIOUX given the he is a half-brother bumper and hurdles-winning stablemate Black Ivory. Frozen Out is related to winners on the Flat while Vintage Glen is a half-brother to the useful Vintage Clouds and Thepensionfund is another to keep an eye on.
