Najeebon can regain the winning thread at the expense of Willhewiz and Million Percent. Mick Channon's charge has been a little disappointing of late but he likes fast ground. Million Percent will be a tough note to crack. Karl Burke's charge runs well in small fields and didn't do too much wrong when folding to Hiccups at Doncaster last time out. Beauvrai is often well backed without success whereas the red letter days for Grey Pearl's backers have tended to be on the all-weather track at Lingfield. A fascinating race with Najeebon given our vote.
